That is not only interesting but an awesome example of the past.

I would think there is a collector that would be interested over at the Garage Journal.

Given the length and expense I went through to get original hardware for the 409, I thought others might be equally enthused about this so I reached to to a friend who does high end pre-war and brasss era restorations locally here assuming he would be highly interested. He said most of his customers want things over restored and original head markings are not important. They actually want stainless hardware or bolts with no markings on them................ugh.

Someone has to need these - what a cool find.

I even tried listing it on Bring-a-trailer but they rejected it. You'd think it would have been weird enough for them but I guess not.

BAT is not what it use to be --- small guys get them on the map then they go for the money i.e. dealers --- tried to list 57 and 58 restored Murray pedal cars with BAT got rejected --- noticed high volume dealers can

That is about the coolest collection of vintage hardware I've ever seen and I WANT it !! But who doesn't ? I have no use for those fasteners nor a suitable place to preserve/display.
As an aside, you have drawers 2 and 3 mixed up in one pic and it's driving me nuts...can you please put them in correct order and re-post the pic...
