Going through some stuff to put up on eBay, and I found this huge wooden Betty Boop calendar with matching figurines that I doubt has ever been taken out of its box. Searching eBay I couldn't find anything to compare it to, so I figured I'd come ask here and see what I can expect to get out of it, or maybe if someone here would want it.

The reason I ended up here is because this is the only place I could find that even had a picture of it, one of your members put it up showing off their collection. Mine is still all packed up in boxes, the little number markers for the days haven't even been popped out of the framing they came in, so taking a picture of it for an eBay auction or whatnot would be very difficult. Here's the picture I found of it here:

As far as I know the only time it's even been out of its box is when I opened it to make sure none of the figurines were broken, but since I have no idea what it even originally cost or any finished eBay auctions to compare it against, I figured it'd be worth checking here before I throw it up for sale.

Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give.

Hi DJ,
This is a modern item from Danbury Mint, and as such, the only value is what you can get for it on auction. I believe the retail was $150, so if you can get that much for it, that would be fantastic. I've seen them from time to time in the $50 range, so that might be more realistic.

I have one of these calendars with all the figures. Can you tell me how much it is worth now. I was going to sell it on ebay but don't know what to sell it for. I searched for some of the figures but only see a few. The December figure is listed for 45.00. While the others are listed for 22.00. What is special about the December figure? Should I list them separatly or all together?
They all look pretty goo except for April. Her unbrella needs to be glued back on.
Thanks for any help:)
