Title: I was clearing out the loft and found these.
Post by: bluemoondreams on March 30, 2012, 08:56:53 AM: I was clearing out the loft today and found three old fart books:
the my little pony anual from 1991

My little pony annual no date on the fount but the coppy right says 1985
visitors can't see pics , please register or login

and A BHS (British Home Stores for any one none british) my little pony Story book 1986
visitors can't see pics , please register or login

I don't think any of them a worth a lot but it's always good to make sure. I'm also wondering if any one might be intrested in giving them a new home. None of them are badly damaged thank my mother for that and tirlessly telling me to take care of my books, there are some indents to the story book were I'd lent on it to practice P and it came though as an intent XD . I'd be happy to post pictures if it would help.

I'd love to see pictures!

*psst I'm bfb*

If you want to sell them I am definitely interested in the older annual.

Post by: hathorcat on March 31, 2012, 01:32:03 AM: The bhs books turn up quite a lot on ebay uk - I think the hard back covers and size means a lot survived stored away in attics lol only to be found and sold now! So around the $3 for that.

The annuals some are tougher to find than others but again they turn up reasonably often enough so I wouldnt have said more than $6 to 8 each.

Cute find!! Its always great to find old pony items...

Post by: Chi on April 01, 2012, 09:49:59 PM: I'd love to get my hands on some annuals!
I found the 1991 one on eBay for about $5 but had $42 shipping from Australia..
I'm sure it's a mistake but it still is the lowest one I'm seeing on eBay, excluding shipping. I usually see them go for about $5 - $10 when they appear. :)

Post by: hathorcat on April 02, 2012, 01:19:03 PM: Thats actually a different bhs one than I thought - the only bhs ones I thought of have a blue cover and the other has a pink cover and they come up regularly often...that bhs one you have I dont actually think I have seen it before...

Can I ask what stories are inside? In case its a different selection or the same book with a different cover?

Post by: bluemoondreams on April 06, 2012, 12:54:25 AM: sorry for the late reply I was ill most of the week. The BHS book is one story called the runaway button.

But they're adorable! And the books look really nice!
