My Board Game Collection
Sodboy13:
Wow, what an astounding collection. Great that you were able to assemble it, fantastic that you made a reference site out of it all those years ago, and concerning that I own or have owned quite a few of these. (Turns out getting TPIR and $OTC for Christmas one year was a real slippery slope situation.)

By request, because a lot of you knew I had a bunch, I have now posted my bound volumes of TV Guide Magazines on the super-secret hidden page. I'm down to my last dozen or so, and I sure would like them to find a nice home. I've been selling them pretty easily on Ebay for more than I'm asking here, but I'm starting to find that tedious and I have a ton of nonsense to go through in anticipation of our move.

Since anybody who's interested is (I think) keeping an eye on this page, it's easier for me to come here and say please be patient! I've got a lot of things going on outside this project, a couple with hard deadlines I have to meet. A lot of people are requesting the same items. I promise it's a first-ask, first-get process, and the lateness of my reply will have nothing to do with your place in line. I'm hoping to get a lot of this sorted out by Monday.

The GSHGHP was my gateway into this community.
When I was as young as seven years old, I loved reading through old Sears catalogs and seeing the differences in products, as well as prices, between now and then. At one point, I actually had a Excel sheet someone on Golden-Road made of all the prizes offered on TPIR during season 32, and I'd read it just for fun sometimes.
I was into board game collecting for a long time, mainly game show home games and trivia-based ones, and I found out about so many games I'd have never heard of because of the work of people like Matt. Wherever the collection ends up, I'm glad it will be in good hands.

It does. I found my copy at an antique mall in Iowa sometime around 2004.
