Every area of the country gets the benefit of enjoying collectibles
that other areas don’t get to see that much.
In my neck of the woods, primitives are seen here more often than things

There’s
a wide range of primitives here in the Ozarks that you could run into, like this

When you travel to another part of the country, it would
be fun to see what kind of collectibles you run into.

I've seen scythes in my area sell in the range of $40 to $60. The thing to remember about these is to check the condition of the handles. Sometimes what would happen with scythes is they would be left outside, and the weather and pesky bugs get to it (espically the handle). The two-handled saw depends on how long the blade itself is. The ones that I see a lot of around here is like this:
