Watches & Fine Timepieces
The A. Lange & Söhne Tourbograph "Pour le Mérite" is a landmark in German watchmaking, combining three of the most demanding complications: a one-minute tourbillon, power equalization with fusée-and-chain transmission, and split-seconds chronograph. Introduced in 2005, it was the first watch to integrate all three. Only 101 pieces were made: 51 in platinum, 50 in gold, with just 12 produced annually. The watch's rarity and engineering excellence make it one of the most coveted timepieces in haute horology.

Comic Books
This history-making comic book features the origin and first appearance of Captain America; his stalwart teen sidekick, Bucky; and their eternal archnemesis, the Red Skull. Joe Simon and Jack Kirby's classic cover, featuring the titular hero punching out Hitler, was a provocative image that arrived on newsstands just a few months before the U.S. entered World War II. One of the most influential comic books ever published, it is currently ranked No. 7 on Overstreet's list of Top 100 Golden Age Comics.

Video Games
This early-production copy of Super Smash Bros. is distinguished by its box printed in the USA, marking it as part of the game's initial release run. The beloved classic brought together adored Nintendo characters including Mario, Link, Samus, and Pikachu in a crossover that was unprecedented at the time. The game quickly became a phenomenon, laying the foundation for one of Nintendo's most enduring franchises. Today it's a popular tournament title at retro gaming events across the country.
