Robert Gould statuettes

I put a small piece of velcro under the base of each figure to prevent them from moving around and getting broken. This way they can be easily picked up from the display shelf I keep them on (stacked on top of each other in 2 rows of 14) for closer looks without worry of being handled or soiled. Makes them easy to move around to other displays or stored for later display.

very nice indeed.
I would be in trouble I would find myself taking them out of the packages like a little kid at Xmas

Hey Fred!

I only have 3 cards, and am thinking that getting the other 25 will likely be a quest for the next owner of my set when I finally make it to "can't take it with you!"

Looks like you are more than halfway there, so maybe I will live the chase vicariously through you!

John - that is a cool way to display these figures! The names are almost impossible to read unless you get the light to hit them just right, so your individual cases are a great way to show them!

Very cool, Larry! How are the figures kept in place in the boxes?

Nice Larry!

But do you have one of the two known Goulds with cards in the plastic bag package shown above?

I have this that I am going to sell. Anyone know a current value? Never seen one offered for sale. Box is beat but complete with cello and the booklet. Also have a bunch of the Gould statues as well as the Dairy Queen/Tastee Freez statues if anyone is interested.
Thanks,
Tony

Great stuff, Tony! I’m interested to know the “value” as well. I gotta think not many boxes survived.

Hey Tony!

These figures in the box don't come up too often so it is really hard to provide an accurate value. The figures in your set are mostly commons (maybe a slight premium on Newk!) so the individual commons go for 30-35 each, very roughly. The booklet looks to be in nice shape, and those are fairly desirable - maybe another 100-200 for that? The box is rough but cool. If I got it I would probably try to put something in the box to get it closer to a displayable state. Maybe you have already received an offer or two for it, so that might be a starting point!
