Speed part stickers and memorabilia

Sounds cool. You'll get plenty of free appraisals for the small price of 1 tasty pic per day. More than 1 would be welcome.

thanks for the comments/interest. im in "discovery" stage which is why i posted in this section. im looking for help on what people think some of these stickers are worth...$5/$50/$500. then i can determine what, if anything, to sell.

So i recently purchased what i think is the largest motion memorabilia and parts collection. to my surprise, the seller also collected day2 speed parts and memorabilia. im pretty overwhelmed right now and taking inventory as the boxes arive. some of the stuff blows me away. things like a bieber shifter in the box or a Dupree TRIPLE fuel pump. at some point, im hoping to show some of it at a venue like the MCACN so everyone can appreciate.

Most of what i bought will be used for restorations or to keep as a complete collection. history is irreplaceable.

Congrats Adam.

One thing; there is no other show "LIKE" MCACN,
So, let's get together and work on a way to show some of this amazing collection at the November 20-21 show.

In the past we have hosted some fantastic collections of memorabilia and I am sure there are lots of people who would LOVE to be able to see some of this neat stuff.

BTW: I would also recommend talking to Tom Dietz, the memorabila collector of all collectors. I am sure you can catch him at Nickey headquarters. His knowledge of this sort of thing is incredible and you will never find a more staright-up and honest guy.

The Tri-Plex pumps were marketed as the Pro-Stock model. Do you have any literature about them? The chrome set I have here were used as part of an old Autopulse show display. I've only seen ads for the duplex pumps.

i'll try and get some more photos and get thru some more tonight. not sure about the triple pumps other than the motion ads ive seen.

as expected,

-----Adam,,,I am amazed at some of these decals. I thought right away that you could have them duplicated. To protect the rarity of the originals you could make some sort of small change. Maybe size, or a mark that would leave no doubt that the repro was a repro. That way people who will probably never see another except in your collection could buy and enjoy the rarer ones???.......Bill S

Adam I would interested in this sticker if you find one. Or just any perfect circle stickers in general.
Does anyone else have one of these in better shape just wondering what the sticker looks like complete?

Thanks Jason

What an outlandish suggestion! Adam is preserving the authenticity of his collection. Do you know Adam or his cars? Reproduction is not a word in his dictionary.

jason- im pretty sure i havnt seen the example you seek.

bill- appreciate the suggestion but not my thing.

Bill,

To protect the rarity of Adam's collection he should leave his decals alone and not reproduce them. If you want something he has or anyone else for that matter make a deal with them and purchase it. Reproducing only hurts the market especially a niche market like original memorabilia.
Creating reproductions would be in self interest which Adam clearly does not have by voicing sentiments in keeping the collection as original as possible.
