Newton store offers antique game on eBay to help charity
Shop's 'trash' turns out to be treasure
When Philip Anderson of Newton moved his Anderson Book and Office Supply to Main and Broadway in 1938, he had a sale to get rid of items he figured wouldn't be profitable in his new location.

It sat there. And sat there.
