Damn I wouldve liked those playing cards and the corkscrew, oh well. I also have a signed windowcard from the closing night of the show... we've probably crossed paths several times.. haha

I didn't buy the corkscrew

Here's my TOTC windowcard. I like it much better than the ones they were selling yesterday. The silver pops so much better than the black.

Most of the people I wanted a picture with, I didn't get (either I missed them, or didn't go high enough!)

TDF---I got Stomp (which I gave to a friend) Phantom, and the Big Apple Circu---and I traded those two for Radio City Christmas (which I'll give to my aunt)

I got a leather wristband from Rent, some cds, a couple of Lestat notepads, a few Spamalot medical kits (bandaids inside, Tis Only A Flesh Wound" on the outside)
Kitty Crack from the Lion King table
I'm sure I'm missing stuff, but I didn't get nearly as much as I usually do (I usually get 8-10 photos at the booth besides all the stuff I buy). I appreciate the fact that they were under some constraints due to the weather, but I may just skip it next year.

As for scripts, the last time I saw an actor's script was Christopher Sieber's Spamalot script (with pictures of his throat in a pocket inside the notebook) about 5 years ago.

The highlight of the weekend was getting Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig's autographs after A Steady Rain Saturday night (in a steady rain). And meeting up with old friends and new!!

I'm very jealous with all the Little Mermaid stuff people bought. Anyone wanna share??

[fscmocsgal]

wdwfreak: I know how you feel, except my jealousy is 9 to 5 not The Little Mermaid. You can share with me you guys (and girls)! :)

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know how much the STEADY RAIN auction item went for (the tickets and backstage meet and greet)? I was wondering just because it seemed like it would go for the most this year. And I'm just curious admittedly...

^^ A Steady Rain backstage meet and greet went for $7,500

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know how much the STEADY RAIN auction item went for (the tickets and backstage meet and greet)?

The STEADY RAIN meet & greet went for $7,500 and they sold a second one to the under bidder, so that one item actually raised a total of $15,000!

I have the totals for all the grand auction items if anyone is curious what something else went for.

I don't know how you guys were able to buy anything at all. I returned home bruised and sweaty. I never was actually able to see anything on a table at all.

It must have been really bad until 3. When I went it was so-so crowded, but by the time I got downstairs NO ONE was down there and a lot of the places were giving things away for free!

Where do some of these random show objects come from? For example - Spamalot medical kits? Jersey Boys flip flops? Little Women notepad cubes? I am assuming not all of these are opening night cast gifts, and I don't recall some of this stuff being sold as merchandise at the show.

Were a lot of these things leftover promotional event items (especially things like the pencils and notepads)?

[bwaybound2010]

Posted: 9/29/09 at 2:04am

I was wondering the same thing. But it probably is just a case of gifts made to present to the case/crew and then selling the left overs.

Not gonna lie though, I wish I lived near NYC. I could have spent a fortune at this, and if anyone just wanted to sell a Little Mermaid window card (bonus points if its signed by Sierra) or from Phantom or West Side Story I'd definitely be interested. :)

I have been to a promotional event which featured a table from Broadway Across America, and they had CD samplers, show-themed notepads and other goodies. I am wondering if some of these things (such as the pencils and notepads) come from similar promotional events. But flip flops and medical kits? Have never seen anything like that, so I am curious. Though I did get some Chicago fishnet stockings from the promotional event I went to.

kellymarie, Triton had those Rent posters for $1, and I know I saw them at other tables. My friend might actually have an extra, pm me.

I bought way too much stuff, so I'm not going to bother listing them, but the hilight for me was probably the Hair costume sketches of Gavin, Bryce, and one of the tribe members. Spent the majority of my budget on them, but oh well.

And if anyone wants a Sunday in the Park with George or Hairspray window card, I'll seriously give it to you for just the cost of postage. And if you're in NY, I'll come meet you or something, and you can have it totally free. I somehow ended up with extras of each. PM me.

I think I walked by the Next to Normal table 50 times until I saw it and the only reason I saw it was because Kyle Dean was there.

Did anyone else think the boys that you could take your pictures with and throw pies or something at were a little...I don't know the word. They were shoved off the side and back, and honestly every time I walked by I feel uncomfortable. But it was like the sun, I know I shouldn't have been staring, but my eyes kept getting drawn back.

My offer is still open to anyone that bought something at the BCEFA Flea Market and would like to sell, please PM and tell me how much you want it for. I was not able to attend it this year with all intentions due to a family emergency.

^ Is there anything you are looking for?

[wdwfreak]

Posted: 9/30/09 at 9:01pm

Not really. I like The Little Mermaid, N2N, and 9 to 5, but I'm pretty much open to anything available.

Hey Seymore Krelborn,

I too picked up a Producers show jacket. Is yours the denim/jean jacket style or the black wool/leather version? Feel free to respond here or email me at: comicbookguy7891 (at) yahoo dot com Thanks!
