A dozen, three and two panel perfect MOPS, A one piece MOP scaled razor, A few 1700's stubbies, etc......... Oh yes, he collects hones...for sharpening knives. He has two decent Coticules. I had bought a couple Thuringians from his showcase in the antique mall. I cell phone called him from the mall to make the razor deal and he invited me over to see his stash. So it was worth the 40 mile drive to see the Mother Lode! It shows to go ya, someone will always have more, better, nicer, and...well you know!
    And...folks, he was lonesome! At my age I can understand.

    To add, he does not even mention the collection to any one around his area, nor even to friends. His kids do know the value so the amassment will not go for a pittance...I guess that is all we can ask after we have our enjoyment
    That makes this score all the more sweet. You got to pick the ultimate Honey hole before it goes to the deep pockets club. Well done. Could think of a nicer person to give these a new home.Maybe you can visit him again in the future and get more enjoyment to show and tell.
