If you ever get a chance to attend a Mid-West Tool Collectors national meet you will see tools like this only in quantities that dwarf this man' collection. His collection is high end as opposed to user grade (i.e., too valuable to use). Interesting it is on Craig's List as this is specialized stuff. Probably trying to avoid auction fees and middle men.

I know where that is, but I'm not going to go there. I'm sure he is asking top dollar, and I have other priorities. But that is one heck of a collection!
