PTT Pinback (Billy Bob's Bulletin #54)

[dheineCECfan]

I noticed the 1980 CECPTT Pinback pic in Billy Bob's Bulletin #54 that featured Chuck E. Cheese (one of his early red vest pics!), Jasper T. Jowls, and one of the early Dolli Dimples pics. Was this recently offered on e-bay or not? Maybe VegaNova can clear things up. I don't know if any more group CECPTT pinbacks similar to the Chuck E./Jasper/Dolli one were made using other CECPTT characters of the circa 1980 time.

Yup,

This was an eBay grab. There's one seller that's lists buttons and pins with a $2 buy it now price. That's the only reason I ended up with this is because he didn't know what he had and I wandered upon it first. Probably at least a $20 button had the auction run a normal course. Maybe more than that.

I know PizzaCam snabbed that Hong Kong CEC pinback recently, and Looneybird78 was lucky enough to get a tiny Beach Bear lapel pin with the same buy it now feature.

It sucks when sellers list things this way because they're just ripping themselves off not knowing what they have, but ah well. Just another reason to check eBay everyday.

WOW, I thought YOU won those showbiz pins! Those were really cool and no doubt extremely rare. :)

The molded pewter RAE pins are VERY rare.

At last years CheeseVention, Aaron Fechter brought a complete set of them for us to see as a surprise and they were STUNNING...exspecially the Mitzi and Dook. He was telling us about how there were only a small handfull made of each as samples from the supplier and Showbiz decided in the end that they were too expensive to produce so dropped them. Some of those still exsist, so if you ever find some grab em'!!

These are by far some of the finest RAE related items i have ever seen next to the laminated tables.

Ah the pewter items... don't even get me started on those...

Alright you got me started. There's definetely some of these floating around out there... I know of probably 3 or 4 people that have one or two. The only one I was able to snab was a Billy Bob pendant and it ran me around $100 if I'm not mistaken.

Definetely too frickin' rare for their own good. If all goes well though, I might have just locked down the next best thing to owning an actual set of them. More on that later....
