Star Wars Day. I don't collect it any longer but couldn't pass them up Original owner AT-AT and Snow Speeder. Both are complete and work great.

 

 

 

 

I still have my childhood snowspeeder in storage. I never owned an AT-AT. Always wanted one. Shoot me a PM if you're selling.

That manual could benefit from a press.

I didn't realize what this was until I researched it, but there were only 25 of these made and one sold in 2014 for $250.

That was a helluva find, but I question the claim there's only 25 of these out there? I've owned two at the same time not that long ago; still very, very rare and hard-to-find.

 

Did you read the article? It said the first 25 winners received the silver foil. And then a little further down, it reads "It has been suggested that more that 25 of the silver foil variants may have been produced but, whilst this is certainly possible, there is no direct evidence of this."

 

Well, how can you prove there's more without having seeing >25 at once, or having someone directly involved in the manufacturing chime in? Anyways, my point is, compared to other items of apparent rarity of 25 or less, they seem to pop-up much more frequently. Again, I've owned two at the same time, purchased from different venues at different times - just anecdotally opinion.

I see what you're saying. I just posted to clarify that the article didn't state the 25 produced as fact. They admitted it's possible there were more manufactured.

Actually looking to put towards my car. I ended up needing a new carb. I rebuilt the old one to find out the last mechanic must have patched a hole in the actual metal. when I turned it to test it on a small stream of gas shot out the side after cleaning it / rebuilding it . Once I can drive it again I want to rebuild the transmission.

Besides mine, there is only one on eBay and they want $1,200 for it.

Thanks! Does anyone know what these sticker (stamp-like) sheets are? They were tucked into a calendar along with a Spock pinup art piece.

Yes, extremely rare! A helluva find in a group of comics.

Nice what a diverse collection

This went under the radar while looking through the fanzines, after a closer look, it's the storyboard from the 2nd episode of the first season of Star Trek The Animated Series...

Found the trailer of the episode on YouTube:

Nice what a diverse collection

 

Thanks!

 

I just found, in another box from the sale, a mint copy of 'Russian Lolita' by Photographer Petter Hegre, and 'Monsters and Madonna's' by William Mortensen!

Unbelievable luck on my part!

Also included were 10 copies of 'Black and White' magazine and a 'collected photographs of Louise Dahl-Wolfe' hardback.

I'm a bit flaggergasted tbh!

Just need to find the last 10 issues and the series will be complete.
