With something this old how can I verify it is authentic Lego Display?

 

Arcylic encasement, rectangular, Lego (andy worhol like dot print) paper backing.

 

A light gray plastic/vinyl (about 1" tall) border around the bottom.  When upside down you can see the bottom is constructed out of 3/4 or thicker plywood with a solid wood frame around it.

 

To help visualize, bottom to top,

 

solid wood frame then plywood, then blue baseplates, then model.

all encased in 1/4 in acrylic plexiglass.

 

The whole thing is huge and may weight around 40lbs.

 

I will add photos later.

Sorry I am not home  to upload a pic...

Thanks for the kind words.  We will be asking the community in the near future what it is exactly members want in the Brickfolio 3.0 version.  I was hoping you were in the Philly/NJ area so that I could maybe work a trade.  Shipping on an item like that is possible, but very expensive.  Enjoy the site...

When it shipped to me I think it was in the $60-70 range for shipping. UPS ground with a lot of insurance.

 

I agree, local pickup is ideal on such a fragile piece.  Still thankful it made it here without breaking.

While the plexi is not flawless I do not recall anything that couldn't be buffed out.

 

There doesn't look to be any fading in the paper graphics or the Lego itself.

 

It should probably be opened so a few pieces can be re-attached (palm tree, one rat-line, etc).

 

Although I am not in the proper forum, I will consider trades.

It is difficult to value, so I have no idea what to ask for.

 

If this is one your things I would rather see it in your collection.  I like enjoy the theme.  It is my only display piece.

 

Untill I move I have no great place to display and enjoy it.

I have family in central Ohio (Columbus and Bucyrus) I haven't seen in ages.  Hmmmm.

 

Keep stoking the fire....

Post it in the Trading Forum.  When people are done making offers, we will talk.  

Fair enough.  Totally unplanned trade bait.

What kind of inventory/stock do you have?
