I purchase a box at a local houeshold junk auction knowing there were stamps in the box. Either nobody else noticed or no one collected stamps. I won a gem for $20. The collection all in glassines is wonderful. Lots of early US and non US and many documents. I figured out it belonged to a lawyer, Raymond E Van Syckle who practiced law starting in the late 1800s

1902
The first case tried in the ( Wayne County) building was that of William G. Bradburn v. Wabash and Pere Marquette railroads. He was injured while working on the railroads and got a judgment in the case. The plaintiff was represented by Raymond E. Van Syckle, the railroads by Alfred Russell. Ten years after the case, the jury held a banquet to mark the anniversary of the building's first trial.
More than just a stamp story.
