Thanks Ves.

Yeah, it was a good chat, David. The only question now is. Who is berta8? El Bastardo!

Show us your wares, so we can grovel beneath you.

I ended up with nada  :(

I wasn't really in it for the Marilyn I had to go out so I couldn't watch and make a call as to whether I would carry on with the bidding. In my head I had $1200 as my max if I had been there, as it turned out I would have been way off the pace anyway.

But I also missed on Lost Moment which I left a $30 max on and which Matt won, then again I came third and third doesn't even get you a "well played sir" nowadays.   :(

Have to add that I had a great conversation with Matt via email yesterday, there was a bit of maneuvering as we discussed some of the items coming up etc...then I realised Matt was probably going after MM as well and when we both confirmed to each we wished each other all the best, which was nice even if it didn't improve the result for either of us.  :P

Maybe we should start a secret organisation for aussies who love daybills so we can share the love equally amongst ourselves and stop them from going overseas.  We could consider an honorary place at the table for that annoying Canadian with some crappy noir daybills.  We could each charge him one daybill entry into the group.

I have to say I don't feel as deflated as Matt probably does, because I wasn't there bidding live it feels less like I lost...and as I said I wasn't really in it. What was interesting was that we both felt there was going to be a lot more bidders than what there ended up being.

I too am curious as to whether berta8 is a local (to this forum).

I think clearly you guys (and gal) should be sending me a noir daybill for the privilege of having me in the group ;)

While not a "noir", that one is part of the structural support of my home.  You wouldn't want me without a wall would you?  ;)

Amazing price for Marilyn.
Wonder what a Seven Year Itch might fetch?

A year's supply of penicillin?  :P

Kidding aside I don't think it as near a good a rendition of MM as The Prince is.

You never know until the end.  But it went to a worthy bidder (and usually these Lost Moment daybills are in better condition)

Personally I'd ask for a Pretty Woman daybill - but I just scored one, so I'm good.

Maybe not so secret then...I had a quick look and thought it was strange that daybill.com.au was not a registered domain name.

It is now.  ;D

Awesome.  Guys if we pool them all together and slowly leak them out for sale, we should have enough to buy one Prince and the Showgirl daybill in no time!

Hope you also get the plural version as I hope there ends up more than one daybill on the site.

Some nutter has:
mexicanlobbycards.com  ;)

Nahhh not that important, besides far too many variables to have to cover all the bases...Yeah I see some nutter did register that domain, and for 3 years too...you're in Chatswood? For some reason I thought you were in Queensland...
