And that's what crushed the Amish in east Lancaster County. I guess only the small tourism out Lincoln Highway is keeping them alive. I just never...
'Sitting on' a little metal is no different than sitting on an apple tree you put in the yard or 8 acres in Alabama. Nothing is a 'sure thing' -...
For all the heated back and forth, is there really even any disagreement on this thread? Kurt sees little to no short-term profit potential in...
Would those be 'proof' books? I continue to believe the best wealth is that which you physically possess. The current preference for digitally...
Great post, and in my opinion, dead-on. I've got several albums of those 80's/90's cards, very well cared for, and market-wise nearly worthless....
