(Tim's-For Sale list!)
(LAST UPDATED-December 15, 2011)Working this week, adding more items! Finished posting Pictures of a EXTREMELY rare WINCHESTER DISPLAY MIRROR, a card of Winchester BASS FLYFISHING FLIES and some very rare 100 count Winchester Shotgun SHell boxes.
(November 19, 2011)-Just listed (3) AUTOKITS!-all are rare items! Also have sold about 50% of the Winchester ROLLER SKATE collection and both Winchester BASEBALL BAT BAGS and the only remaining Winchester FOOTBALL SHOULDER PADS!
(October 29, 2011)-almost finished with the WINCHESTER STORE 5-panels sets. Just posted (2) Winchester BASEBALL BAT BAGS, a very rare LOUISVILLE SLUGGER BAT RACK, a very rare Winchester VEOCYCLE or TRICYCLE, a rare WINCHESTER PAINT BROCHURE DISPLAY HOLDER and currently working on listing all my WINCHESTER STORE ROLLER SKATE items, including advertising-take a look, I will be complete by late Tuesday evening!
(October 6, 2011)-I am selling ALL my Winchester 5-panel sets of advertising (Large CARDBOARD Displays). These were used primarily in the Front Windows of the "WINCHESTER STORE". I have 97% of all the sets shown in the WINCHESTER "RARITIES" book, in fact most of those in the book are the very ones I am selling! I also have about (11) sets of panels, including some SINGLES PANELS that were not in the book.
I am also selling my personal collection of WOODEN FRAMES that were used to display these panels, (sorry the Steel Frames are sold-they went fast!). I have WOODEN frames that are totally original-no restoration or any changes at all, including a very rare one with "WINCHESTER" decal. I have other ALL ORIGINAL frames that have the legs shortened (a common practise back "in the day", to allow for different configurations in the display itself. In most cases only the legs are shorter, the rest, including the paint is untouched.
I have many (custom made pine frames-painted black) and (custom made OAK frames-clear finished). These are generally available as SINGLE PANELS, SETS OF (3) or complete sets of (5).
This is a very large project to (list all these items), I expect to be done in the next week or 10 days. Please Keep checking this space, I update almost daily! I know there are some questions, so please call or email.

Still planning on moving to Wichita (pending the sale of the house, so I am continuing to list many WINCHESTER and WINCHESTER STORE items-but this will take several months to complete, at the rate I take pictures and get them posted on the website. I have many duplicates, so I am going to list the rarer stuff first. As a example:
(a rare Winchester FOOTBALL, a Winchester Drill bit stand, a Winchester scooter skate, a Winchester tricycle, a STONE MINT 1936 Winchester Brochure holder, a baseball (in the box), Wooden Wagon, Floor Sweeper, very rare BASEBALL BATS, very rare BASEBALL BAT DISPLAY, very rare BARNEY & BERRY revoluing Flashlight display etc.) The really good stuff. I also have a entire collection of Winchester tools, cutlery, razors, razor straps and related items that I am selling. I have most of the rare, hard to find pieces that most collectors need to complete their own personal collection. I am willing to sell those items. I can't possibly list all of those, so contact via telephone 918-786-8500 or email tim@wavelinx.net and lets see if we can make a deal. I know that some of you have seen some sites and some autions will good stuff, but this really is the very BEST WINCHESTER Collectibles and most all of my items are in Exc. or better condition.
Also see several new Calendars and Posters from other Gun Companies and a (3) ITHACA Gun Catalogs, all by Lynn B. Hunt-including the very rare FOX/BLACK CROW catalog.
I am also in the process of listing/selling MY ENTIRE COLLECTION of P.R.Goodwin Wooden puzzles, most include their ORIGINAL BOXES! It will take a few days to complete this task! These will be listed on the "PHILIP R.GOODWIN" page only!
have listed for SALE, my entire collection of WINCHESTER LARGE DOVETAIL (Hand made) WOOD CRATES. I have no room for them. Some of the RAREST known crates are included!
have listed for SALE-all my FLOOR and COUNTER-TOP Display Cases (some small, some bigger) that will not fit in my new house/location.
-Also listing for sale, a very large supply of old Auction catalogs from Bob Strauss, Dixie/SOLDUSA, Wards, Langs etc. Also a very complete collection of WCA and WACA magazines, some of which are the oldest printed and in very limited supply. Also see a listing of Hunting and Collectibles magazines that are for sale!
I have sold 95% of my Winchester Gun Collection and now am concentrating only on those models with "STAINLESS STEEL" barrels. Please call or email with any for sale or trade!
-added 3 complete sets of Philip R. Goodwin Portfolio's/prints that are for sale.
I am still very actively seeking those WINCHESTER items that I need for my collection. I have posted these under the LINK called "Tim's WANT LIST".
Recently I have also undertaken to add to my collection of Envelopes (or Covers) as these cancelled envelopes are more correctly known. I am actively seeking ALL BRANDS of SPORTING related Covers, not just WINCHESTER. Also LETTERHEADS of any SPORTING COLLECTIBLE type.
Lastly, I am seeking selected SHOTSHELL boxes by the CLINTON CARTRIDGE CO., the KIRKWOOD BROS. of Boston, Mass.. the MERIDEN FIREARMS CO., the MONTGOMERY WARDS Co. U.S.A., the SEARS, ROEBUCK and Co., the PETERS CARTRIDGE Co., the U.S.Cartridge Co. and the WESTERN Cartridge Co.
I am also buying any shotshell box that says or has any designation of a "HARDWARE STORE". These may vary from just a few boxes made up privately by a Store or they might be the more traditional ones produced by a MAJOR CARTRIDGE firm like "WINCHESTER" or "PETERS". The Boxes will likely carry the name of the HARDWARE STORE, but all the loading will be done by the cartridge firm. There is ususally a notation on the box, stating who loaded the HULLS/shells. These are listed in full detail under the "Tim's WANT LIST" section of this website.
As always, I will buy direct from you or pay (up to a 10% FINDER'S FEE) and take all the risk myself. I can't possibly be at all the local Auctions, flea markets and estate/tag sales where this stuff still frequently shows up. I wish you good luck, hope you find some good items and call me. I will buy on the first call, given a good description and price!
