I've found it hard to find these in nice condition for any sort of reasonable price lately...but I've had a bit of luck.

These 30 more matchbooks arrived in the mail today

Nice group pickup. They look good all laying out together. Even a U4 hof Klein

And I agree that the prices have picked up of late. Maybe we should close this thread and not share our passion for this match covers so we can keep all them ourselves

Close the thread?....no way. I have ambitions to get as many views on this thread as ooo-ribay Hey, Pennant Guys thread.

Only 1,364,964 more views needed. So let's get posting!

They are insidious, Leon. Before you know it, you have a collection.

Today I finished the rainbow for my Rabbit Maranville collection. The final pickup was the green, with all matches intact. My favorite things about the 1934 Diamond Matchbooks are the large checklist and nice little bio write ups.

Congrats, those look great.

And you forget one other possible favorite thing. They typically don't cost an arm and a leg to afford them!
