I truly have NO IDEA what the value of this collection is! To me, it doesn't matter, it's just fun finding things and adding. I especially like to find old ads, and the more unique and obscure items. Just discovering a new (old) item that I haven't seen before is exciting.
This collection has been growing for about 20 years, and I've documented over 3,000 items (I think I have most of them!)
I hope you enjoy collecting, too.

i guess it must be hard to put a price on some of the more"different" and unique items. i honestly rekon u have the biggest collection out there as i dont rekon any 1 else has collected all the older things u have, good luk with letting it carry on growing ;) xx

Hey Boopman I thought I was an avid collector!! Wow these are great pictures... how in the world do you keep it all dusted???? That's my biggest problem!!

P.S. I can see where all the profit from your book sales are going... right back into Betty Boop merchandise!!!

BBooper

lol! i know, i bet it's a nightmare!! i think in a way it would be fun too becuase you can look at all of your collection in detail and i bet you'd find thing's you forgot you had!!! :D

Dusting??? Oh, ya, you had to remind me!! I just get the cats to jump up on the shelves and wave their tails all over - just kidding! Actually, it is nice to go through and actually look at each item. And what you don't see are all the pins, buttons, paper items such as cards and postcards, books, magazines, etc. Whew! Thanks very much for all the comments and nice feedback.

Whew is right!! I have so much stuff that I've added to my collection recently that the majority of it is still sitting in unopened boxes on the floor and on top of the display cabinets.

Is there ever a good time to stop addint to your collection? LOL!!

BBooper

I would say no!! i don't think you can get enough of BB no matter how much you have! lol! :D :D

The biggest challenge I see is finding room for everything and the really big one is finding enough money to buy all the BB items you want!!

OH JOY!! That's alot of stuff...I can't find ANY betty stuff here...besides fabrics...I was really excited to see your collection...I had no idea there was so much Betty stuff!!

booperbritenay there is probably BB stuff in Kentucky.

Wal-Mart carries some BB things.
Always keep an eye out for yard/garage sales too.
Antique shops are a good place to check out as well.

And if all else fails you can always shop online for Ms.Betty!!

Good luck on finding BB!!

Hi BOOPISQUEEN... welcome to our forum!!

So you have a Betty Boop tattoo? What is the image you have of her on your arm?

Hi booperbritenay... welcome to our forum too!!! So you live in Kentucky and you can't find Betty Boop in any of your local shops? BettyBoopFan just gave you some good advice on where to start searching for items to add to your collection.

some of the best bb stuff can be found in places you wouldnt think, there is a girls clothing store, called mandies, dont know if they are state wide but they are popular in ny, they have some really cute shirts and sexy things with fur on them, thats where i got my name from a really cute pair of pj's that said boop this on them. even check the dollar stores sometimes its hit or miss,i also am in love with hello kitty and i find alot of stuff there too :eek:

Welcome GrannyBoop from Texas!!

I have ordered a few new Booper things meself...and haven't had time to open the boxes. I've been too busy.
My cold (coughing and stuffy nose) is back or maybe it never really left me...so I'm here trying to get better. Don't feel like opening any boxes.

Oh Neckless... sorry to hear you're not feeling well again... you must be feeling bad if you don't feel good enough to open new Betty Boop boxes!!

Thanks for all the comments, guys (gals)..... these pictures are a couple years old, so there are a few more things. ANd of course, none of the ephemera is displayed, so if I feel industrious one day, I'll go through some of that and make up some new pics to post.
And of course the BOOK has even more photos.....

still more!

<img src="http://www.bettyboop.com/forums/photos/p7050004.jpg">

do you know when these trays were produced??? I have one of this type of Betty on a rocking horse dressed up as a cowgirl...

are they late 50s/early 60s?

I made a thread already about this subject, but perhaps i should go to the source! :cool:

Hi Layne,
For some reason I never saw your question about the Lulu trays . . . I guess you posted it in January, I just now saw it! Apologies!!
These trays first were made in the late 1970s, early 1980s, and were made without license. The company (Pascual) has since been nationalized, the people and records gone, so I was never able to get an accurate date. But they continued through the late 1980s until they were finally forced to stop using Betty (and Donald Duck) on their items. Funny thing is these are not their products, they are just marketing gimmicks. Chapter 17 in my book has a variety of these products documented.
