Okay, remember how He-Man and Skeletor were popular back then? Well, here’s another one of those Masters of the Universe toys that’s probably even better.
This playset was described by an eBay seller as the “Holy Grail” of all the Masters of the Universe toys. It’s because this playset was used as the battleground for both He-Man and Skeletor.

Many clocks can be sold for $50, but higher-value models by esteemed makers like Westclox and Telechron can reach nearly $1,000 in value.
Milk Glass Easter Eggs
These delicate novelty glass eggs were originally sold blank so that Victorian ladies could embellish them with spring greetings and pictures. Eventually, the sentiments were usually damaged by washing or handling.
These eggs were also quite useful at the turn of the century. If hens weren't laying eggs, one could put these eggs under the hen; then she would produce.
