[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 9423866, member: 84"]A friend found this yesterday at a local thrift store & called me asking if I thought it was anything and if I could ask the antique forum I'm always talking about? He told me if it was real I could sell it & we'd split the money! He'd found a black & white one selling for several thousand dollars! He also said the measurements were right: visible is 13.75" x 10.5" approx. I found a different one that Walmart is selling, but this one 'looks' old! Plus, I couldn't find a copy of this one new or old for sale. Could this be an original from the 1st musical?!
