Besides numerous Zippo lighters and other paraphernalia, he bought the big lighted rotating Zippo Lighter display cabinet shown in every photo and at left in the photos that have more than one.
I would figure anyone that collected Zippo Lighters would covet one of those display cabinets, especially a lighted one that automatically rotates.
I was easing along narrow crooked Wheat Road in Adair County, Kentucky, when I spotted this guy breaking out his garden with a very antique "C" Farmall.
I put my truck as close to the ditch as I dared, baled out, walked around to the fence, and commenced to snapping photos while my loud truck sat idling behind me.
Three huge dogs were very interested in why I was there and were all around me, checking me out thoroughly.
The tractor driver spotted me, shut down his machine, and came over for a visit.

Instead of my "Big Girl" camera, I was armed only with my Canon S90 P&S that always lives in a holster on my belt.
It has no view-finder, thus forcing me to shoot soccer-mom style, using the always invisible LCD screen to frame my shots --- all I was seeing was black; thus, I managed to not get his hand holding the steel fence post just above the barb-wire, which would have really improved these photos; of course, the fact that I had one eye on the road behind my truck and the other eye on the road ahead and doing my photographing with my third eye didn't help matters either.
A sharp eye will already have noticed that he is wearing next-to-impossible-to-find Pointer Brand overalls; if you are a born and bred Kentuckian, they are "bib overhalls"
I included this last shot as it shows the back view of his overalls; notice that they are the now-rare "no back" style, as opposed to the ever more common high back style.
Notice how the galluses cross each other via an intricate interwoven design that is woven and then sewn, such that they are free to move up and down and back and forth, yet they can never uncross themselves.
