Is there a scene in that movie where SLJ's hair and beard look like that?
No, probably a publicity photo taken before or after

There are some on ebay, I think the white I was remembering is around the edges of the characters. I happened to be riding a bike with a friend by a video store, but a hole in the wall establishment and this was outside. I asked to either have it or paid $2 in 1994 or 95. They agreed, and my friend said take it but thought a minute because we were on bikes and we tried successfully.
I remember setting it up, but when we moved later in the next year or so, I might have not wanted to bring it to truly start anew.
Yeah that is the iconic and valuable four character standee I was referring to! Very nice!

Since you hint at the point of what I need to ask? 🤔
At what point would advertising become sought after, is it as high as 25 years or similar circumstances to even pinpoint? Would do wonders sometimes, as I know there are pivotal ones and etc .
I think it was this thread or another with the coca cola Marvel....
Closest I had was a pulp fiction standee, a big one that I got as a kid from a video store. Not sure if blockbuster but I don't think so, anyway it was people size and had all the main characters. I haven't thought about that in ages 😂
Even advertising from the 2000s is sought after by me. I would say it’s the quality that matters most. There could be quality output at anytime. Nostalgia varies from person to person. A Pulp Fiction standee sounds awesome. Is that a single character or four character standee? I would love a reprint poster at least. There’s an iconic movie scene where a Pulp standee becomes pulp in Grosse Pointe Blank

Huzzah for garage sale season! There's a father and son who do a regular garage sale every Saturday from around Derby until October, and today was the first sale of the year. Nice guys and they always have interesting stuff. Picked up some great old store display pieces today. I've been looking for this Spider-Man sign for a bit, and this thing is cherry, even came in the original plastic sleeve (though opened). Also picked up the DKR display at a great price, and this X-Men Mutant Gear hanger which I've actually never seen before. Not sure where I'm going to put it!
Nice pieces of comic advertising history!

Had a seller send me an offer @ 50% off . $42 down to $21. (Plus $12 shipping) I accepted and paid. Shortly after I get a message asking if I could send them a picture or copy of the offer. They said they never sent it and were trying to contact ebay to figure out why/how this happened. Just told them to cancel.
Seems like an honest mistake by the seller

When they do that say, "Oh wow that's a $100 book. I must have been tired when i priced that one..."
Then pull out a pen and mark it up to $100 and say, "Thanks for pointing that one out!"
I would feel obligated to honor the price once it's quoted. I'm not a fan of the vendor raising the price on a book for higher either lol. Just don't be a cheapskate lol.
