Spellman Museum of Stamps & Postal History

Join NobleSpirit at the Spellman Museum for a special Appraisal Roadshow and discover the stories — and potential value — behind the items you’ve collected, inherited, or tucked away over the years.
Guests are invited to bring a wide variety of collectibles and historical material for evaluation, including stamps, coins, paper money, gold &amp; silver jewelry, space &amp; aerospace memorabilia, vintage technology and computing, signed material and autographs, cryptology and code-related artifacts, pop culture collectibles, and historical artifacts.
Whether you’ve inherited a collection, are downsizing, settling an estate, or simply want to learn more about an unusual item, our specialists will be available to help identify, evaluate, and provide insight into what you have.
There is no obligation to sell. For items or collections that may be a good fit for the marketplace, information will also be available about consignment opportunities and upcoming live auctions.
Bring your albums, boxes, collections, documents, memorabilia, and curiosities — you may be surprised by what you have.

Barnes & Noble

I am a local author promoting my book, My Name Is Thea, Just Plain Thea...The Tale of a Half Journey of Madness, Mayhem, and Triumphs at the Burlington, MA Barns &amp; Noble. I will be meeting with readers, discussing the inspiration behind the book and signing copies between 1:00-3:00 pm. My book is an Autobiographical Memoir, a story that chronicles my life from birth up until my 51 years of life; all the obstacles&nbsp; and tragedies I went through, and all the triumphs too! It is a story of resilience and survival and over coming the near impossible! It was written to help me heal, but with also the intent to help others through their challenges in their lives.&nbsp;Due to the incoming storm (Nor'easter) My book signing event has been rescheduled for Sunday, October 18th at 1:00-3:00 pm
