Playbills are so tiny, why don't you at least keep the Gypsy one if it means that much to you?

True, it's going to be difficult to sell the Playbills at some of the prices you are offering. I paid $20 for my Dirty Rotten Scoundrels Playbill, and it was signed by the entire original cast.

I am not sure why you are selling, whether you are just cleaning out or in desperate need of money, but honestly, way too much for some of these Playbills.

Just look at some other prices of comparable items.

I don't think you have to worry about the Gypsy Playbill selling. Not to knock it but it's the B&W version and there are all kinds of marks and such on the front cover.

It also might help you to list some of the cast members by name where you just say signed by the cast.

I do wish you the best with the sale of the Playbills.

I wish you the best of luck too though from a lot of experience dealing with theatre items, I suspect you may struggle with some especially the Gypsy one. Laurents isn't that sought after. I sold a hand written and signed note from him for about $15 In an auction with one bidder) so I hope you aren't counting on the money too much.

Again from experienced, there are only a few signatures that fetch high figures.

Anyway all the best.

While we're on the subject of selling autographed playbills, I was wondering if you all could give me an opinion on what these could go for. I really do love them, but I'm trying to decide if they're worth holding onto or if I should try and sell and make an easy dollar. I have my binders for the shows I saw with tickets and I'd never get rid of those.. I'm still debating on these. I just wanted to get some opinions!

@tentillplaces

it is easy to research on ebay what Playbills have sold for in the past. Quickest way is to enter the name of the playbill and click on completed auctions. If one has sold you will see it posted.

If her signing it at the door after the show isn't authentic I don't know what is! Wanted Stritch too but the doorman came out an said she had already left. Bumping this post back up! Not too much longer left!
