Gee, Marc, I had to move a beast of an enlarger and stand, a 16x20 Zone VI
print washer, a heavy dry mount press, and a table saw in addition to the
two Halliburtons filled with Leicas and other actual picture-taking stuff. 
Only after the fact did I actually go through everything and set up at an
annual photo tag sale and put out the extraneous items priced with the
objective of going home with full pockets and empty station wagon. 

The former spouse did receive a Nikon FE2, 35-105 with correct hood, and
SB-16B speedlight as the parting Christmas gift.
