Pick collection for a mere 2k!

On my local CL tonight:

Guitar Pick Collection:
http://columbia.craigslist.org/msg/4647379376.html

Dare I ask how many in all or perhaps if Lloyd Loar himself signed some of these??

NFI here (probably obvious).

[Pete Braccio]

This just makes me feel a little bit sick.

Like they say on Pawn Stars, it costs a lot for the presevation frames and the time it takes to sell. "That's gonnna hang on my wall for years! You got a pawn shop of your own?"

[PJ Doland]

There may actually be a fair amount of (very valuable) illegal material in there.

[JeffD]

Well... If that is the entire collection, and counting up the number that look like they could possibly be illegal, I don't see 40 of them.

There may be value in the collection that isn't in the picks. Most of us don't collect picks, we more or less accumulate them. So maybe there is some collectors value?

Filed under the 'There's one born every minute' section.

[Jim Garber]

There may actually be a fair amount of (very valuable) illegal material in there.

I can't say for sure but those that could be look like celluloid to me. There is one nice clown-barf pick tho. :-)

On another slightly related note: I came across treasure in my own home. In a rare case of pre-fall cleaning, I decided to go thru my nightstand and found (among other things) a stash of my favorite Gibson heavy jazz picks. My disorganization sometimes brings me joy.

[F-2 Dave]

Nary a blue chip to be found.

well, otoh, there are , possibly , several vintage sets of nationals

not being a pick collector, only a hoarder, nor knowing the finer points, its hard for me to judge

simple...he either finds a like minded pick lover, or he don't
