OLDS 2 Sketch Posts - Spoilers

[Duznt]

The fear of not getting one down the road is a big motivator for me in my packaging collecting, and it usually has turned out to be warranted.  So many of my most prized pieces, I've only found once in all my years of collecting.  If I'd let them pass by, I'd never have seen them again.  Inevitably, that means that once-in-a-while, I find more later, and I have that pang of "what if I'd waited" but more often that not, I wish for the things I let pass by. 

That's what being more collector than investor is all about.

I think the amount of that "fear" we have is directly proportional to the number of times we've experienced those "missed opportunities". I have quite a bit of that in me also. Definitely part of being a collector. I hope this isn't how hoarders get started.

Finally got around to opening my last three OS2 boxes!

Pulled a Lynch Ka-Boom, which was a nice non-repeat Lynch for me, and these two beauties:

I really wanted a Griffith in my collection, being a Zippy fan from waaaaaay back in the day (living in Berkeley, Ca), and was pleased to pull a Zapata after selling/trading my other one early.

I ended up with three Lynches that I like, plus six different characters by six different artists!

Time to revive a dead thread. These are my non-Lynch pulls. I've only opened 12 boxes so far.

hey guys!

so as you can see, this is my first post...I'm not nearly on the level of collecting Wackys like some members here, but I do love them. I collected them in my younger days, and now I'm getting back into non sport card collecting in general. I like to stick to only buying one hobby box of any set of cards...so, heres my one sketch. I absolutely love it, and could only find one similiar one early on in this thread that wasnt nearly as detailed as mine. I couldnt even find anything similiar on ebay either...I think its safe to say its probably the best non color Mrs. Klean I've seen so far....so as far as you serious collectors go, how did I do?
