Could there be a possibility of having a designated area on CT for sell sheets. I don't know if very many people collect these things but they are very popular in the circles I run with and I am a big collector of these sheets of paper, could also swap sheets in this area as I have a ton I need to trade away. I consider these a big part of the hobby and classify them as promotional material. I know that Mike Fitz started something cool awhile ago where he tried to catalogue sell sheets and came up with a master list, I have found that to be pretty resourceful. This area could be used to update that list or announce new additions for instance or a definition of what constitutes a sell sheet could be discussed, as I know that has not been determined yet. Sell sheet questions could be asked in this area as well as posting pics of sheets for those who are curious. But if this is something that can be easily posted about in the Promo card section or promo talk sections then that will be understood. I know I have some sell sheet questions right now but not sure if there is enough interest to pose them. Thanks for any feedback.

I agree with Zane.

Sell sheet collectors unite.

I always thought they counted under promos and I think of them the same way

That makes sense to me.

i always thought the same

I think there is already a section these could be posted in. New Promos Releases (not card related) They are promos, but they are not cards. They just need to change the description of that section a little to include sell sheets, because most sell sheets are card related.

Which is why they go in New Promo releases, they are promos, and they are card related

That's where I would have posted if I wanted to start a topic on sell sheets. I don't think a new section in the promos forum is need for just sell sheets .

Warning: Mixed signals being sent (and received) above...

How about doing a Poll?

The correct answer is to keep them in the trading section.
Now move along decision has been made

If they're promos why aren't they called Promo Sheets?

They are in some circles

there are many names for them
Promo Sheets, Sell Sheets, Ad Slicks, Flyers, mini-posters

They've worked hard to achieve more than just a simple classification, but are being kept back by the man.

i really think there should be a section for sell sheets as they are different from promos but they do go with a set tho yes some people collect them some people dont its only the same as promos isbt it? dont some collect them and some dont!

what i mean is have it under the promos section but just open a new forum section for the sell sheets

I thought I'd revive this thread. 1993 Marvel Masterpieces Series II Sell Sheet By Skybox just sold for $130 on Ebay. I think that's the most I've seen a sell sheet sell for. Does anyone know what the rarest sell sheet is, regardless of its price?

I take it that sell sheets are not made anymore. I used to collect these and have loads of them but have not seen any new ones for years.

Albert,
Sell sheets are commanding some good prices right now. Not sure if people are discovering them or are bored from staying at home and spending money but I have been watching the sales too and they appear to be taking off depending on the title and scarcity. a "rare" sheet will depend on the buyer's need to have it. But there are many scarce sheets out there. Does anyone have a Munsters Rittenhouse Archives sheet? Or how about a Biosphere Acorn Productions sheet, there are so many I can name.

As far as new sheets being released, I haven't seen any for the last couple of years but Topps did release some walking Dead sell sheets around 2017 I think and RR Parks is still making sell sheets as well.

If you are a sell sheet collector like me, please get in touch, would to love to trade or talk about them since there are so many more I need for my collection
