To my surprise, I find that I have:
Four of the more Purple color,
Four Green,
Two Dark Blue,
One Brownish Green,
One Redish shade of the Purple.

I find that when scanning the Books and Wand Boxes I have to enhance the image by brightening and adjusting the contrast to the card swatch.  Otherwise it's hard to determine the swatch color and you can't see the details.

Roz - Is this a blue swatch with black grain?

I pulled a couple of more different Wand Box Props:
One looks like RED Snake Skin and the other looks like Brown Lizard Skin. No doubt Gucci Wand Boxes.  ROFL!

Just when I think there is nothing new with the SS set something unusual pops up. The Wand Boxes could be/have been a complete series just by themselves. I must have about 9 distinct variants and have seen 4 or 5 more that sold on ebay for a ton of money.

Hey gang,

I cracked some more Potter today and pulled a Wand Box with a pattern I haven't seen mentioned before:



It's a low number: #069 - has anyone seen this pattern yet?

Also, here is my nicest Library Book:



They are up for grabs if anyone wants them.

I've seen a blue wand box with that pattern but not a red like your's.  VERY nice library book!  Remember the one with the pink star that sold on ebay?  I can't remember how much it went for, but I know it was a lot.

Maybe a good idea to post my Wand Box and Library Book here. Sorry, not for sale. Wink

The Wand Box is very similar. Smiley

Eeeeekkkk!  That's the same little girl squeal I made when I saw Anna's Fizzing Whizzbee card. Wink  The library book is spectacular, Tower!  My favorite so far.  I like it much better than the star one that was on auction.
Hey, Rich-your wand box is sure to draw a high premium on ebay.  Let us know if you put it up.  I can't afford it, but I like to watch to see how high certain cards go. Grin

Yes, my thoughts, to be honest, i didn't like the one with the star very much. But i like this one very much. Smiley  I was a little bit sad that i had to bid against well known forum members but it was too unique to pass, so i had no choice. Fortunately it doesn't happen very often that i have to overbid people i don't like to overbid.

I just received my new Wand Box today. Grin  The swatch is purplish-red color with a gray and black label.  The corner of the label is bent up slightly, but I still think it looks cool. Cool

OOOOO what FAB cards you've all posted! Grin
I'm glad Artbox have varied the swatches for the Wand Box cards, otherwise they could've been really boring ... a bit like all the black robe costume cards in the last set! Roll Eyes

Thanks for posting them for us to droll over and admire!! Grin
