Picked this 1966 artifact up over the weekend at an antique shop. Got it real cheap because she could not confirm it was complete. I was pleasantly surprised when I got home...

Wow, look at the color on that! That's terrific.

Connected with a guy whose wife was basically making him get rid of his childhood. Took these and a bunch of comics off his hands. Nothing amazing, but a fun trip down memory lane. 

 

Dude needs a new wife.

The box looked terrible when I bought it. Just covered with 50 years of garage dust on it. Lady said it came from a local garage sale and had been up in the rafters for years. I did a careful cleaning and glued back a small edge piece that tore when the kid opened it. The puzzle was beautiful and probably spent it's whole life in the box. Bummer on the water stain but you find what you find...

I'd say that's a good deal for sure! One of the shops I go to had one of those What if 10's, sold it for $300 within a day of putting it up. I knew the book was nuts, but had no idea HOW nuts.

Not comics related, but still collectibles...

Was given a matchbook collection of well over 1000 matchbooks mostly from the 60s/70s through the 80s/90s.

Sets of local (Arizona), Vegas, USA and international. Evenly split into those four sets. 

Started picking  through them last night, interesting stuff. A lot of these places don't exist anymore, and I chuckled to find a few Disneyland matches. The space shuttle one was cool too. 

I know nothing about collecting matchbooks but these were fun to pick through.
