Last night, stnick22, a long-time and knowledgeable collecting couple, unveiled 166 auction listings with items spanning the gamut from many entry-level items to those that even the most advanced collectors would spill saliva over. It was fun and educational reading their well crafted descriptions that were devoid of the frivolousness that too many sellers think readers find entertaining. (I’m a just-the-facts type of collector.) Several personal highlights are the “cat and witch hugging” candy container, the two Beistle fairy hats and the very large German diecut lantern. It’ll be fun to see what this fine assemblage fetches in a calendar year wherein a stunning quantity of higher-quality items have been offered.
