My guess, based on my experience with jun ... er... "antiques" dealers, is that
their attention is on the saw. If you asked them if they'd take $20 for that
"crappy wood thing" they might just go for it.

> Yesterday SWMBO and I took in some antique shops. In one I found a "saw
display stand." It looked at first glance like a tall sawhorse w/ a slot to hold
the saw. It was actually a two piece top that was hinged at its base so that as
you spread the legs apart, it gripped the saw - a saw vise that put the saw at
filing height. Of course, such saw vises have been discussed before, but I don't
ever remember one for a misery whip.
