My first post, and with it, a request for the estimated value of the pictured 1962 Jello boxes. I submitted these for an auction, and they ended up 'missing'. Needless to say, I was not pleased with a $100 offer of restitution.
Ken Marks, was kind enough to offer his thoughts, and I wanted to get some other opinions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey, THEDUDEABIDES, I am so very, very sorry to hear about your loss. That is downright lousy. Their crumbum restitution is robbery, and I think you could take the matter to court. Straight-up honest, bro, I feel just horrible for you. It had to be brutal giving those up in the first place. Ouch X 10 to the 3rd power!!!!!
 I hope Ken and some others come to your aid and support. A strong, brotherly hug to you, bud. That does not make my day. That auction house better look around A WHOLE LOT CLOSER, 'CAUSE I THINK THEY KNOW WHERE THEY ARE!!!!!!! I know things can get lost, but any auction house knows that's one of the paramount rules----YOU DON'T, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, LOSE TRACK OF YOUR CONSIGNORS' GEMS!!!!!!! --- Brian Powell

Really curious which auction house as well
In the first place to "lose" them and in the second place to only offer you $100 is despicable - as the other post suggested - either privately or publicly - really would love to know which auction house this is. Pricing is really hard as they surface and sell so rarely. I would say a floor value of $800-$1K on the Banks and $500-$750 on the Santo with the possibility with the right competitive bidding on them that they could go considerably higher.

Many thanks to those who've responded so far, and for the PM's. Ken Marks has been of great assistance. Harder to find a nicer guy. Mark

Tell that contemptible auction house to begin a fresh search and scour their joint top to bottom. Tell them expert Ken Marks has been informed of this slip-up, and he will inform all of his fellow 1962 JELL-O buddies to be on the look-out for these 2 precious boxes. With the clear scan you showed us, they will be possible to identify them.
My metamessage for you to convey to that auction house is that steps are being taken to notice them on the market, and should anyone at the auction dare to sell them "out the back door" it will be found out!!!!! This all sounds rather neurotic, but look what has happened? EXACTLY. We're all pulling for you on here, bro. --- Brian Powell

Great idea.
Wonderful thought Brian. Totally agree that if collectors who are interested in this situation keep there eyes open, even if it is just a handful of us, it would be tough to put it up for sale on eBay or in an auction. It is likely that Santo only appeared on the Orange Pineapple gelatin. Same with Banks although he was also on at least two pudding flavors. At least that is all we have tracked to date. Not sure how many of those boxes exist, but can't be many (I have a Santo--opened on the other side Mark
 ) Not sure if you have any other pictures from different angles that might be helpful. There should be traits of your box that help identify them down the road (location of price stamp, general condition of box, side box was opened, and how much of the open end of the box is gone/left. We talked value on the phone and I would continue to seek input from Wayne as he is the most knowledgeable collector I know with current values of 1962 Jell-O (and research tools to help). My view is that we likely are not talking thousands of dollars here. Back about three years ago, at an REA auction I bought three 1962 Jell-O flats (so never had product inside them) and seems it might have cost me maybe $800. Players were Fox, T. Davis, and Malzone. Flats were in top shape. Then maybe a little before the pandemic, bought a full unopened box of 1962 Jell-O Coconut Cream Pudding with Roger Maris on it. Am pretty certain that price was short of a $1000. So as we have talked, I don't believe these boxes are worth thousands. I would be more at like $1000 max and probably less. But again, absolutely defer to Wayne and his research as bidding wars can escalate prices amazingly. Brian-why don't you make everyone drool a little bit and post your top-tier 62 Jell-O item on this thread.
