Valuable Old Town collectable

[Mark Adams]

I am going to use my sniping tool on this auction. I really, REALLY don't want to be outbid on this. Stay away, all you hooligans.

Hey, keep it down in front! I've got thirty more I'm gonna trickle out when y'all ain't lookin'...!

Gonna retire in style, yes I am!

jees, I was so excited by finding this rare and valuable item, that I completely missed that it was a Buy It Now auction!

this must be the oldest known old town paddle to exist.

You don't see graphics like that except when it's done at the factory.

Well, the seller is obviously a student and follower of 'ole carnival/circus man, PT Barnum who coined the phrase "There's a sucker born every minute"!!

There's a "Make Offer" button; think he'd take three-fifty?

Is it worth that? The graffiti sort of defaces it.....

Comically, there used to be a shop across the street from the OT factory that sold all sorts of odds and ends.
About 20 or so years ago I bought a short little paddle there that looks quite a bit like this one (not as crude).

It is a valuable rare old collectable antique wood oar for paddling canoes.
I am willing to accept all offers for $400 plus. Send me a personal message if interested.

Brad, you meant three dollars & fifty cents, right? I think that's pretty generous...
