RARE NEW OLD STOCK TREASURES

Have you heard the term "New Old Stock (NOS)?"

It refers to Old Stock of any item that was never sold or used.  For example, if you were lucky enough to come across a collection of baseball cards (hopefully still in the old wrappers and un-opened), that could be NOS.  Similarly, if a business, Gallery, shop or warehouse had items purchased years ago but had not sold all of the stock, that would be NOS.  Other New Old Stock items are art glass, pottery, pens, watches, toys, woodblock prints or other things - you may have received as a child - but never used or opened.

The real trick is to be lucky enough to find New Old Stock.  These items are not easily found because they are often stashed away in storage and in warehouses for many decades.  Over the years, I have been extraordinarily fortunate to discover numerous wonderful New Old Stock items (many in their original boxes!) which have been in safe storage for 25 to 6O years, or more.  In the marketplace, NOS is like the "holy grail" of anything collectible, and is so highly prized that it often commands very high prices.

If you look carefully - you can find some wonderful and unique New Old Stock items on ebay:
