Some of the artifacts from
the great old movies,
called classic by those in the know,
are being auctioned off
for millions of dollars.
The sizzle in the advertising
is a little flat, but you
can’t argue with the numbers.
The Wizard of Oz, Casablanca,
Breakfast at Tiffany’s,
to name a few,
have pieces of memorabilia
worth many dollars.
The announcer says it’s like
owning art and maybe so.
He mentioned Renoir,
Degas and Cezanne.
What about Warhol and Lichtenstein?
They are doing pretty good at auction.
I looked out in the garage and found
an old garden rake that I used
when I first started yard keeping.
It has a lot of sentimental value to me
and ought to be worth some big bucks.
In the attic is a television,
broken I might add,
that we used to watch
the Howdy Doody Show and
the Disney Mouseketeers.
I’m sentimentally thinking
a lot of money here, but
then you never know.
It is all just stuff and
significance is in the eyes of the beholder.
An old bowling ball, a fat-tire bicycle and
a Wilson tennis racket are all there
waiting for discovery.
Step right up;
may I draw your attention to the center ring?
