This loose leaf binder is on my shelves; the record book was available from Mike Murphy & Sons and maybe still is; it's tucked inside. It shows who, when, where etc. the gun came from, price paid, repairs/alterations made and cost, serial numbers, and any other tidbits about each gun. At least my family will have an idea of value. I have similar records of rods & reels, musical instruments, etc. As to other things of value - books, art, pipes, misc. stuff...not so much. I guess they're on their own there . I do remember a quote I saw that I always loved: "My greatest fear is that when I'm gone my wife will sell my stuff for what I told her I paid for it."
