The photo on the card is SO appropriate here... with the Monster almost saying (in that pose): "Are you kidding me, or what?!?!"

I'm betting you're right.
A long-time and beloved APF member told me a few years ago that he had seen several Mel 'types' before.
Without getting into the details, he accurately predicted Dread Pirate Mel's 'history' and, this sale was the closing chapter.

Damn, Ari...you were spot on.

Icarus's father warns him first of complacency and then of hubris, asking that he fly neither too low nor too high, because the sea's dampness would clog his wings or the sun's heat would melt them. Icarus ignored his father's instructions not to fly too close to the sun, whereupon the wax in his wings melted and he fell into the sea.

Well, the neigbours will start to see a more normal neighbour in Mel for the next open house days.

I think Bruce said Mel was a 'lifer' - a collector for life. Its hard to pick em I guess.

I'm on my last legs collecting, I've got too many (200? + 150 mex lobby cards!). Maybe if I can bear to sell some (well, maybe half the collection will be easy ;) ), I might do what others do and sell the less desirable ones and consolidate to a limited collection of good ones, its own little self funding pool. Why store them and never see nearly all of them. At least with a smaller collection the odds of seeing them are much higher. I have other priorities at the moment - need income from other sources to pay off debts, and then maybe,... , move closer to the girlie... I've been saying that to her for 5 years though...

We'll probably never see it but would really like to see a pre-restoration pic (and of the battered Mummy one sheet that sold years ago)

Clearly no.  If you are unable to decipher the arcana, you are not worthy to own them.
