Collection Liquidation
I am commencing the liquidation of my entire collection. This is mostly scoops, but it also includes other related items.
As with every collector who has preceded me in this task, I would like to sell the entire lot for one price. However, I know that this is impractical, and I don’t really expect that to happen.
My collection is quite comprehensive and includes very rare and expensive scoops as well as many very inexpensive items, good for a starter collection. The bulk of the collection consists of the in-betweens.
I will start adding some of the most interesting items to this section of my website soon. These items require the most documentation and description to justify their rarity and the high price. I do not have a list with prices and pictures, as many people would request. That is beyond my capacity at this time, as there are well over 2000 items in this inventory.
My intent is to list some of my offerings on this website and respond to individual requests as they surface.
If you have a wish list or would like more info on something that I list on this site, just contact me.
Almost every item that you see in the content of this website can be made available. If you are looking for a rare scoop or just a set filler, let me know. I can also provide bulk, inexpensive items, but shipping prices make this difficult. If you can pick them up, I can sell them at low prices. ($5-$10)

Here are just a few of the items that are for sale. I will be adding to this list over the coming weeks. This liquidation is just starting (Spring 2026), and the best selection of available items is now.

Sayco scoop
A.T. Dietz
This Sayco scoop is one of only 3 of these that I have ever seen. This sample has an appropriate patina and works well. Price $225
This is a very hard-to-find ice cream sandwich scoop. There is no manufacturer’s name on this model, but I have seen another marked “Rauch.” This scoop works nicely and looks great. I believe that it has been re-plated at some point. $350.
Square Dipper Specialty Co. 1923…..$225
