I am thinking of selling my Kookaburra or Laughing Jackass match boxes (made in Australia) circa 1920-1930. I have 14 boxes in original package, unopened in good condition. Only genuine interested persons to apply, not sure how this blog works but can send photos.
ReplyDeletePlease accept my apologies, but due to other interests, I have unfortunately been neglecting this website for a while and thus wasn't aware of your comment until now. I must tell you that this site's only purpose was to share photos of my own matchbox collection with those who might be interested and not meant to facilitate any sales between my fellow collectors (myself included). It sounds like you have a very nice collection and I wish you the best of luck!
DeleteI have two full sets of Redhead match boxes for sale commemorating the engagement and marriage of Charles and Diana 1981 unused and in good condition + several extra boxes from that series, used and unused. See the series at this link. http://redheads.com.au/match-collections/chuck-di/
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment! Once again, I wish you the best of luck with your matchbox-related endeavors!
