Ton of dumbbells including round heads, bun heads, globes from York and others.

I was first impressed that the entire collection had been assembled in one year and during a pandemic from December 2020 to December 2021.  Next, I was impressed by the size of the collection.  Finally I was impressed by the rare items such as Zuver's 5 pound plates and Jackson plates.  These are rarely offered for sale and are often prohibitively expensive for most collectors.

The collection shows excellent stewardship with a blend of refurbished and seemingly original plates that have yet to have the dust knocked off.  I hope Benjamin continues his vintage journey.
