I resolve to: ... stop being jealous of east coast toy collectors who have access to better Marx items than I do in the midwest.  ... finish the museum cataloging process I started in 2009 on my collection.  ... finally start the website of my collection I have been planning since 2010. ;D Happy New Year Everyone. Thought now would be a good time for review of this soon to be past years resolutions! 1: I am not as jealous of east coast collectors and there access to better stuff than me so I am giving myself two thumbs up on this one!  The thrift store haul made this much easier to keep!!  2: I am approximately 2/3's done on cataloging and might have made it if I hadn't changed my cataloging method twice this year. It cant be the fact I am sometimes lazy about stuff I don't find entertaining!  So one thumb up for this! 3: Complete and utter failure!  I did get a bid to create one but chose to spend the money on more toys not the site. I also purchased a book on how to do it myself but the book is still in the bag the book store clerk put it in when I bought it!  Oh well resolutions like collections are never really completed!  Happy New Year everyone!! |

Forgets the books, it will never work. Find a web host that has a web builder program built in. They are fairly intuitive. Or you can get a tumblir or picture hosting site and go that way. In the meantime I have been hanging out at Collectors Weekly where you can post anything of your collection that is an antique or collectible. www.collectorsweekly.com/oddly I am fortapache over there. |

Went to an antique show this morning and actually came across more Marx stuff than normal. Bought several playset figures for $11 and will be putting them out on Ebay in the next few days. Saw but left a number of playset buildings and three Johnny horses that were priced to high.

Excellent. I figure finding anything worthwhile is doing good.

While working on resolution number two I got to witness the crumbling of two right arms from a carmel colored Jay and Jamie. Someone wouldn't have a couple of right arms available for trade would they?

Sorry Blindpig, I replied to your post on Yahoo and never got back to you. Did you ever get your arms? I'm going to be going through my extras April 1 and 2. I can check what I have, if anything. Are you looking for the solid or rivet version/s?

Still looking and for the boys I need the solid and I believe solid also on Johnny but will check for sure. Not above mixing and matching if need be.

Sorry I do not have spares. They are dropping like flies.
