Question for the miniature experts:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 84838&rd=1

-> Is this from one of the TSR Miniature Boxes (5xxx line) or a separate flyer? Does this have any collectible value?

It looks like it would have come in one of the TSR box sets, but since my are shrinked I'm not sure.   :wink:

I believe that came with paints and brushes. I'll check my paint sets when I get home.

Invincible,

did you have a chance to look after it? This hasn't sold and is on eBay again. I also think it came from a miniatures box, since it seems to have the right size for it.

Ralf,

I made a mistake :oops: , I didn't have this pamphlet, but I have seen it before. The funny thing is I was cursing the Bay this afternoon and stumbled on it re-listed. So I picked it up for the $10 BIN. Then I hopped on the Acaeum and saw your post. Sorry man if you wanted it. I'll sell it to you no profit if you're still interested, I don't want any hard feelings around here. I believe your deduction about it being in one of the miniature boxes must be correct I think thats where I saw it years back at a friends, but what one or ones I have no idea. My best guess is the obvious one, it's just an off pamphlet to inspire painting and sell paints and supplies.

Mike

Mike, I was only interested in understanding where the item came from, I didn't want the item itself. So, anyway, thanks for looking!
