ITEMS FOR SALE (PERSONAL)
I am having an ongoing house clearout, but do not have
time to set a right price, or to put up full details, for some items. If
you want more info on anything, please contact me.
I should be able to take and send photos of any item if needed.
UPDATE 07.03.08. Not only having house clearout, but
also SELLING HOUSE. 3-BED TERRACE IN SHEFFIELD S4. More details here.
List of items (details below); WASHBURN 2-60 BASS
COMBO (SWAP), HOUSEPLANTS, BROOKE BOND TEA CARDS, MAD MAGAZINE, SCOOP!, DIPLOMACY BOARD GAME.
WASHBURN 2-60 BASS COMBO
Purchased late 1970's, I am the only owner, not used
much as I have not played bass much since the band (Helix - no, not the
American one that you may have heard of) split up in the early 1980's,
and we never did many gigs anyway!
60 Watts, 2 channels with separate controls - both have
volume, bass and treble, one also has midrange. Fairly large - approx. 2
ft. 6 ins. high. Slave output. Two speaker outputs from amp, one of
which normally connects to the built-in speaker. Photo available.
Want to swap
for small (and I mean small!) bass combo with battery power facility.
HOUSEPLANTS
All well established, and a good few years old, maybe more than 10 -
can't remember! Most could do with potting up. PHOTOS AVAILABLE - not
had time to do thumbnails here yet but you can see photos at http://sheffield.gumtree.com/cgi-bin/show_posting.pl?posting_id=9851804.
Crassula (aka Jade Plant, Money Tree) £6. Medium sized, about 2ft.
tall, 1 ft. 8 ins. wide.
Cissus (Antarctica "Ellen Danica") (two available) £6 each.
Have been in hanging baskets but this plant also puts out tendrils if it
has something to climb up. You can have the basket too if you want, but
it may not fit if you pot up. Takes very easily from cuttings - these
are descendants of a plant bought in the late 1970's.
BROOKE BOND TEA CARDS; The Race Into Space. Full
set of cards (blue backs) in album. Fairly good condition inside, but
front and back covers have some wear and fading (can scan if you want to see),
and the corners of the pages are slightly dog-eared. OFFERS PLEASE. Add postage and
packing £0.70.
Apparently this is worth less than separate set of full
cards and empty album. What the hell do people think you were meant to
do with them!? Can you just imagine some nerdy kid - or was it his
parents (expect it was a boy) - in the 1960's, actually keeping the
cards separate - at a time when they had little or no adult collectable
value, and the word nerd had not even been invented - so they would be
worth more in 30 years time?
MAD MAGAZINE British (UK) edition. 75 early
issues, inc. nos. 2, 9-13, 15-20, 22, 25, 26, 28, 29, 31-41, 43, 45-47,
49-55, 57-72, 74-90, 95, 96, 99, 191. Not in wonderful condition as I bought
them at the time to read and have had them ever since. All are a bit
browned around the edges of the pages (from the effect of light
over time?), but mostly otherwise OK inside - not damaged. Some covers
OK, some less good - some have
minor damage to the spine, a few have more damage (especially the
earlier editions; 99 also has damage to the cover).
So great if you actually want to read them, but not
top-grade collector's items. OFFERS PLEASE or enquiries for further
details. Will sell individual issues. Can probably scan pics of some
covers and pages. Postage and packing at cost.
SCOOP! Waddingtons board game. I have had this
since I was a kid, so ?1960's. All the contents are present and in
reasonable condition, but the box has some damage - generally a bit
dog-eared, and the lid is squashed from having something else stored on
top of it, but no tears or bits missing. Offers?
DIPLOMACY BOARD GAME I bought this secondhand years ago - I would guess early 1980's - but have never used it. All
the contents are present, board has slight marking to the back but the
playing surface in good condition. The box has a little damage and
marking. Offers?
