It's what makes the collector's market so much fun. What's hot today is not tomorrow. And, it's all about finding that particular buyer willing to pay the price. My father once owned the personal side arm, original ammo, and dress holster of a former Central American Dictator, deposed in the 1950s. It was a Beretta semi-auto in .25 cal. Established provenance. He parted with it for a song. Sometime in the future, there may be a surge of interest in obscure Cold War era Latin American dictatorship memorabilia. It will be worth a fortune. Our loss. Somebody else’s gain. All part of the fun.

Of late I have taken a great interest in all topics relating to the Old West. True West magazine is a must read for anyone interested:
