I spent a total of $185. One item is really neat with New Orleans history.

Clothes: I didn’t pay more than $4 for any of these











Vegas:


80’s AD&D figures $20


SW figures, a few from 77/78 $20


Box of slides, but I bought it because some of the slides are from 1958 Indy 500 $10




$1


$1 1965 Frisbee


$15 each, long bows






$15 each Beatles albums






IYKYK (so close, but not it)




$20 New Orleans Pelicans mini bat. The bat company changed its name in 1927, so this puts it in the Babe Ruth era of the Pelicans








The bat is my big hit today. I have no clue the value.

If that SW Jaewa figure had a vinyl cape, it’s worth over 1k.

your biggest find may be the beatles yesterday and today.
Do you know the story behind this controversial album?

It was released around the Vietnam war and originally had the beatles sitting with a bunch of baby doll parts.
This caused outrage and immediately halted production to replace with a new album cover which you have there.

before they released the new album cover they had a surplus of the old cover so they made stickers to place over all these albums so they could sell them.

I have a framed one that has the sticker peeled off that reveals the banned album cover but was told that this album with the sticker over the old album that has not been pulled off is worth a pretty penny.


Please google before you sell.

The Bear recurve bow is a nice one. If not micro splits it’ll still perform.

I can guarantee you that Ram Man is jammed and hasn't worked in 35 years

1965 Frisbee

What brings a person to hang on to a Frisbee for 60 years? I understand now that its probably a collectors item but for the forst 30 years, it was just a toy

The Bertman T-shirt and the Bud jersey are tight!

I know Lori Bertman from College and Facebook...I'm sure we could get it to Skip and he would love it.

shite...your sister is friends with one of Lori's best friends. You should make it happen...Skip is a National Treasure!

Me and Bubba had an Unlimited hitting pass that my parents bought us when it 1st opened.

I think this one was a swing and a miss. I doubt any of the SW are ‘77 since there’s so many mid ‘90s mixed in.

The Indy pics could’ve been intriguing, but you have the positives.

My elderly parents both passed recently.
We must now figure out what to do EVERYTHING.

May I contact you?
If so, how
