Now this will blow Palitoy auctions sky high-rare poster

[naughtyjedi]

come to think of it, I did find a (cough... ) modern sw figure I wanted for my collection, it was spelt incorrectly.. watched it, waited, got to the last minute where I was going to win it for 99p on my bid.. and my ****ing connection stalled on the tablet. I contacted the seller to see if he'd do a deal and he said he'd listed it incorrectly and would relist.. sodding thing went for £10+ .... aargh

Didnt mean to rock any boats here.Just thought that such a piece could be discussed,as it is so rare.Palitoy is a worldwide thing,and ive loved that poster or ages.Many,many collectors will want this.I actually messaged the buyer about this,and he said he has rejected big offers already.If i were to end up with this,i would do a limited reprint run just so fellow collectors could enjoy such a piece.This poster is the centerpiece of any Palotoy collection IMO.

Would a reprint run be a good option?

Not sure. To me, to be honest, that sounds a bit repro'ish. I really have no idea what people think about this sort of thing where posters are concerned. It sounds less offensive than reproducing cardbacks

 

[Palifan]

Hell yes!

It would also help to share some of the cost of buying it I'm sure and even though I knew I'd be priced out as soon as I noticed it it's the one poster I'd love to have.

Sold for £517 - I thought it might go a bit higher but still a very good price, too rich for me though. Bet the seller can't believe it!

i was second on it

i have one a little better condition but it is very rare and thought buying another one i could not go wrong with two ? so put in a decent bid

Apparently Jim Stevenson had two of them a while back.

I thought this might have done a touch better, I already have one in slightly lesser condition and paid around £400 15 years ago so thought this may touch £750....It's a beautiful poster and looks great framed up.

Well as an investment and something else to disappear in your warehouse then no you couldn't go wrong!
