Certainly. I have a bunch of Atari and Commodore ad-blurbs that have nothing

lovely glossy for an Atari 810 that I treasure. Sure I keep the machines
because I like them, but if in my older "old age" I need money their value
will be enhanced for younger generations of collectors should I have to off
them before I die.
And of course the Atari 2600 t-shirts have been a big market item for some
time, and the Atari Riot group has made Atari items popular. Apple could be
next but I have more trouble viewing the A-II as socially dangerous which it of
course was if you view it sociologicly.

Perhaps you would be interested in a once in a
lifetime offer of an Amiga
CD32 umbrella (never used), or a chocolate tea pot, or...
I may offer a basket of Commodore candys - in original case, never used.
:)))
BTW: Are there some people collecting merchandise/advertizeing
gimicks of the computer age ?
