Postscript: Unfortunately, thimbles were not one of the 52 categories in Tomart's Price Guide to Garage Sale Gold. Mrs. Crosby retired from publishing The Thimbletter in 2000 after 23 years. However, she reports thimble collecting is still going strong, with a convention planned for this August in Danvers, Massachusetts. No word on how many thimbles are expected to attend alone.
