Hi guys, I'm thinking of bidding on this, any opinions or comments would be greatly appreciated

Hi Sir Sidney.

If that's an original 60's woodgrain box that seems remarkably cheap. Even with replacement cello and repro stars.

I can't quite put my finger on it but I do wonder if it is a genuine 60's card. My Alan Hall books are in my bedroom and Sara is fast asleep but I'll take a look when I can.

One question. Is the helmet wrap in tissue paper?

All the best mate.
Mark

Thx Mark,

the helmet is wrapped in tissue, I don't know if this is how it was originally, I checked Alan Hall's book and his is not, however I know that quite a few of the carded sets in his books were re-cards,

Sir Sid

It does look like a great addition sid, if you bid on it ?

That looks fine to me Sid but it is a definite re card. Still Rare but again in my opinion a fair price.

Edit *** Ive just converted it into pounds and its £190 i would say £125 - £150 tops for a re card Sid

When I see great collections like yours I realise I don't collect, I  just play with old Vam!  

I just checked out his whole ebay shop and he's not cheap..especially on the smalls..

But it seems top end of a reasonable price... if you can afford it then do it and sell some of your extra bits to cover... that's what I always do... only then I don't sell my extra bits  

   

Thank you to everyone for your replies and great info, very much appreciated, time to mull over a beer or two, I will keep you all posted

    

i'm waiting on some new things arriving, but I have withdrawal pains from not posting any pics, my apologies if I have posted this one before

I am soooooooo envious Davy Crocket and FFL. Would feel like I had died and gone to heaven if they were on my shelf

I fly back home tonight for my Son's wedding in Belfast, so I wont be posting too much for the next two weeks. I will catch up with you all at the end of the month, I should be bringing some 1/6 stuff back to Canada which has been stored for me at my Son's house.

Sir Sid

Have a great time, Sirsid   

I look forward to seeing what you take back home from your son's.
