Sorry for the super late response dear, I did what I could this week.. BUT I read the comment early last week, just wasn't able to respond..

In fact there was a time I was desperate for cash and nearly sold that collection to a dealer. But there were the good times I spent with my Father around his collection, fun memories that were treasured.
I held on to them.

I'm happy that you got to hold on to them! I know how it feels to have to sell everything with a bit of value to buy food. It sucks. I'm so pleased to read that you could "save" these memories with your father!

At some point, I will make time to dig into this stuff further, I should bookmark the links for now and probably create a nice bundle of these links for when I have the focus to grab my head around that stuff.

Thank you for sharing this, post incoming soon! Currently finishing it :)
