Great pics Josh, thank you for posting them.

WOW is all I can say. Thanks for sharing such amazing pics, and history of Myers’ collecting!
AWESOME pics!!!

I wish I had that Kirk :smiling_imp:

Had to…

Fantastic photos. Thanks for sharing.
Ahh. a 75 kirk…behold! :drinkers:

The Don Post Skull in the 1982/83 box is {would be} a Holy Grail!

Excellent Post!

Thanks for that post Josh, a lot of history right there. Those photos are fantastic!

Best pics I’ve seen in a while! :smiley:
Huge thanks for sharing man! Bet they bring back great memories. :wink:

Simply the best pics I’ve ever seen !

Awesome pics Josh! Love all the DP stuff.

Question… I remember seeing Darren (UK) post pics of a drawing very similar to this one. But I could have sworn that ArtMark did it… I thought it was an original idea.

Any more info on the artist from 2001? Looks almost identical.

Here’s Darren’s pic.

Super glad to see you guys dig the pictures.

Kirkus - I got that Skull and Box on eBay for NOTHING one season and stupidly sold it. It was super sweet to have - someone from around these sites bought it. I can’t recall their name.

Chadderoni: This guy wasn’t Art Mark. He was a lawyer or wanted to be a lawyer and was writing a book about famous court cases. Orenthal01@aol.com or something along those lines. He was a cool guy, but super intense. He was good friends with Terry @ CGP.

This is my favorite post ever made :open_mouth: :smiley: :sunglasses:

Josh,

You’re right man! I forgot all about Troy Orenthal. I used to talk to him all the time… he finally got burnt out w/ the hobby apparently.

He lived only an hour from me, but I never met w/ him in person. It had been so long since Troy had been around that I forgot about his artwork.

Yeah now I remember that’s where Darren got the drawing from… it was a great idea! I love the artwork.

I emailed Don Post to see “if” he had any boxes left, sadly nope. I’m thinking about getting some repro boxes made up…who knows. :wink:

Do you have any larger file pics of the box? That pic made my night!

I love those old boxes as well. The only ones I come across nowadays are the Star Wars blue boxes - they don’t seem too rare.

But I have only seen 2 or 3 of these red ones in my collecting days. Definitely a cool addition to a DP collection.

Those pictures are the only ones I have of the box. Glad to see you guys dig the pictures!

oooooooo-that poor tattered kirk :cry:

awesome thread :rock: :smiley:

This is like one of the best posts ever!
Very enjoyable.Thanks for sharing it with us.

Josh - seeing pics of that beautiful Kirk ALONE is a “hall-of-fame-worthy” post but these other pics added with it make this one of the best posts ever! Thanks so much for sharing these man, excellent read.
