A woman from England is selling her late husband's extensive collection of vintage irons — set to go on the auction block for over $10,000. The man had over 400 irons on display at home.
Matthews was first introduced to the now-popular clothing iron when an elderly woman gave him one to use as a doorstop.
"We spotted them in Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic, Greece, Turkey, Canada and the United States," she said. The nurse and photographer recalled to Hansons Auctioneers one instance in which the couple traveled to Quebec City, Canada, on the Queen Mary 2 voyage. "He bought them, but when we returned to the ship, the x-ray machines spotted two large lumps of iron in his bag," she said.

Appointed last November by Attorney General Merrick Garland to take over two Justice Department investigations involving Trump, Smith has now secured two indictments against the former U.S. president.
