   While I have been collecting for years, I really don't think that I have   
   anything of value to anyone else other than myself.  If I had to take items   
   though, it would be my custom framed cast picture of the original 'Trek'   
   case with matted index cards and custom framed picture of Gene Roddenberry   
   with matted index card.  As for a third, my mother has a China doll that   
   she's had since childhood so that would make it at least 61 years old.   
      
   --   
      
   Your mentioning the doll reminds me of after my mom passed away and my   
   brother was holding a garage sale.  I dropped by before it started and   
   noticed some of mom's dolls sitting on the floor about to be priced.  So I   
   ask, "Bob, what price are you putting on that big one." He tells me $2.50.   
   It was mom's Shiirly Temple doll from the 40s.  So we pulled it from the   
   sale and instead gave it to mom's favored niece as a keepsake.   
      
   Best,   
   Bill
