I finally found some time to scan my cards. I didn't bother with the ones numbered over 2000, since mine don't look any different from the ones in the price guide and Tower's overview. Lupin costume 433/834 (black material) and 442/834 (gray material)   Wanted poster 60/335 and 69/335   Daily Prophet 133/480 (not the best, but it's from the front page above the headline on the left -- it's part of the price printed on the paper)  Pansy Parkinson auto  |

Upon instruction I watched the DVD last night and I couldn't see him in the black shirt  I have one of each Lupin shirt and I think (from talking to people who opened a lot of cases) that they tended to get a fairly equal balance of black and grey.. so as yet I don't think one is rarer than the other - although if we all collect one of each we'll make it 2x as rare |

The black material must be from a tie or sweater. I can't imagine that his shirt was constructed from both fabrics sewn together. If you look at the picture on the card, can you tell what the dark material is that's visible between the collar of his suit jacket and the collar of his shirt? Can you tell this is bothering me? |

I hadn't thought of that! Don't know if I'll get a response, but I sent an email to Artbox asking about the different materials. |

As to the Lupin shirt....maybe....just....maybe the back and front of the shirt are different colours (black and grey) We should be able to study it a little bit more in the dvd, which is being released tomorrow.

From 3 boxes... Nothing too exciting Though given the luck others have been having, a chase per box is ok, I guess  Grimm fur 726/880 (best of the lot) Lupin costume 2804/2900 Harry Quidditch 1552/2173 13 foils (missing 2 unique ones) 2 Sirius boxtoppers, 1 dementor one Ah well... |

Hey "kbmum", do you know of any place that I can see a detailed view of any pages from the Daily Prophet??(like how you knew where your piece of prop was cut from). I'd also like to know where my piece came from.

Hi there everyone. You have a really busy forum here!!!
I have joined the forum following a bit of luck. I've only ever had one box of cards and I got it for this Prisoner of Azkaban collectors update, I received it this morning. I think I overpaid on the box price as it was £55...
However, it totally doesn't matter now as I have opened it - and I got a RON AUTOGRAPH CARD, a film cell with Harry on it and a Rosmerta Costume card.
So let me get this straight. Are these real authentic autographs?
Thank you for listening.

Yes, they are actual autos personally signed by the stars. Congrats on your great box!!! Definitely worth what you paid for it.
