wanted:Auction brochures..........

[renaud]

Hi!!
I am looking for industrial auction brochures from Ritchie Bros, Miller & Miller, Yoder & Frey, First Team, Forke, and other auctioneers.
I am mostly looking for brochures from the 70's, 80's and 90's.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Max.

I use them for pictures reference when i customize/build scale models.
I mostly build scale models of older machines.Right now, i am building a Link-Belt 7400 excavator.That's the main reason why i am looking for older brochures.They are extremly hard to find because most peoples throw them away after the auction sale-they don't really have any monetary value so whoever get them does'nt really care, but i do collect them(i have close to 2000, mostly from Ritchie), and i know a couple of folks who collect them as well.
I am also looking for a few Ritchie ones in the more recent years(2009 until now)
Thanks again.
Max.

The most likely persons to have some of them are the one who never throw anything away; the "packrats"......
If you know anyone who hang on to erevything and/or collects construction equipment litterature, don't be shy to pass the word, especially since spring is coming and they might decide to do clean-up and throw stuff away.
Thanks kindly.
