Here's a picture of that same cabinet with a better view of the games from about eight years ago:

That’s a really nice assortment. I’ve never run across that Selchow Tom and Jerry. Great stuff!!

You’ve got some great board games in those cabinets like the Terry Toons, Outer Limits, Lost In Space, Johnny Ringo and more. 

I’ll take them at 20% off

All scans are the same size which is usually 400 x 575.

They appear to me to be the same size as shown in the post.

That’s interesting. I’ve hit “refresh” a few times on my tablet and only sixteen of the twenty thumbnails show up in the larger format.

Some of the candidates don’t show up full-size.

I'd say his talent was putting them together in vibrant, poster-like covers.

Very true. He's much more a graphic artist with an eye towards montage and design than an artist per se.' 

The results were right on point: great eye-catching covers!

That seem like a pretty crazy result for a somewhat common low demand pulp. Is this the now considered “FMV” for this one if I should consider my similar copy?

I’d be very surprised if that’s a legitimate result. There are a lot of shenanigans going on right now in pulps. Jordan Belfort would be proud of some of the “pump and dump” strategies being employed in this newly-hyped field. Unfortunately when some new money comes rushing into a collecting field, there are always going to be big bad actors creating the same sort of FOMO that we just saw unfold in comics over the past four years. Rinse and repeat… 

At least with NFT’s, the treachery was right up front. 

I don’t see how this doesn’t cause a stagnation going forward for the later printings. Who’s going to throw around that kind of money even for a lower grade copy knowing that the asterisk that was perhaps long bubbling under the surface is now front and center for everyone henceforth? 

At the very least, if you have a June 2nd version, you should take some of the people in this thread out to a really, really nice dinner!

I wouldn't be coming to this forum if I wasn't a long term boardie, and desperate for options.  In short, I no longer have space to store my books in my residence due to growing family needs.  Is anyone aware of any luxury storage places that can vault high end books anywhere in the US?  The only place I am familiar with is UOVO Art, and after touring their facility in San Francisco, I was not impressed.  They simply cater to an art audience and do not have an adequate facility for collectibles.  Outside of luxury car storage options, I am not finding any facilities that cater to high value collectibles and the like.  Any suggestions welcome and greatly appreciated.  Basically need a space that can accommodate the equivalent of 10 long boxes under the highest security.  If I could put a safe in my residence I would but I simply can't.  Thanks

No joke, consider putting them under your bed even if you need to commission a carpenter to help with some custom cabinetry. There are bedstands online that offer more clearance and sometimes forego a traditional box spring.

Bump! Heading to eBay soon! I thought my prices are maybe on the optimistic side but I expected soooomething. Haha

You have great offerings obviously. Here and elsewhere, it does seem to be a buyer’s market for now. Good luck on the house.

These two are especially awesome! Collectors in the US tend to love the 'glamor girls' on bottles, so that Blue Seal bottle is on our radar too.

Sweet! Were most of those brands distributed in Illinois?

No, they're from all over. I have no real affinity for my birth-state. If it's got good graphics, I'm interested. 

Here are some phone pics of the bottles on that same shelf that occasionally rotate through. They're fun to hunt for, and quite inexpensive, and it's absolutely crazy how many different brands there were before the national and then global brands came to dominate.
