_Warman's Americana & Collectibles_, 5th edition, lists a Zorro
watch at $65. Of course that's retail, but the book doesn't say
if that's with the original box it came in. If you don't have
that, it might be worth a bit less, but my observation is that
anything from a popular older TV show is desirable to
collectors.

I am wondering if anyone is selling 1990 Best Minor League complete set that 
has Frank Thomas in it.  This was before the Classic and Best mergered together
to formed one company that is now know as Classic-Best or Classic/Best in 1991.
I want to buy the 1990 Best complete set and if you are planning to sell it to
me, please e-mail me as soon as possible.  Thanks!

This might be a touchy subject with some, but:

I've come across a Barber Half that appears to be just
a slight rub away from mint state. I say "appears" because
the thing is covered with gunk of some sort. (It looks like
some kind of glue or varnish.) So, my question is, has anyone
had experience with cleaning silver coins? Ordinarily, I
wouldn't consider it but trust me when I say that this coin
would almost be better off melted down for bullion than left
the way it is now. Any advice on what products to use or what
products to avoid? Can I get some sort of solvent from the
local H/W shop, or should I stick with products which can only
be obtained from coin supply dealers?

 It seems that I should do some more research on this note. This, and

I personally prefer white background for my stamps.  One reason is
that I can write (in pencil!) catalogue numbers in the margin.

Another problem I've noticed with some, are that the strips are so
"loose" that they don't hold the stamps well.  They keep falling out
or tumbling over, which makes the stock book more or less unusable.

I'll second that.  I'm still actively using a Leuchtturm which is ~21
years old (my very first album :-).  They may not be the cheapest, but
they're good.

If you by a book which has the pages divided (vertically) in the
middle, you get twice as many strips per page - useful if you want to
sort all your duplicates by number.

intersted in trading them for figures I don't have, opened or unopened:

    Original 1982's (no swivel-arm battle grip, these are UNOPENED!):
      Rock n' Roll
      Zap (3)
      Flash (2) 

   Others (unopened):
      Free Fall
      Dee Jay
      Big Bear
      Rampart
      Red Star
      
   Others: (opened but w/ all accessories & filecard):
      Snow Serpent (original)
      Viper (original)

P.S.  There was an invidiual who was interested in selling some various
unopened G.I. Joes that is son was no longer interested in but I lost
that email address, if you are by chance reading this post, could you
respond again?  Thanx!
