Season's Greetings


In case tomorrow's festivities decrease online time, we'd like to take this time to wish everyone a happy holidays. Whether Christmas is your thing or not, this is a time of year that should be about getting together with friends and family. At the very least, those gatherings can't be any more of a disaster than poor Clark Griswold's earnest attempt for a fine family Christmas.

Just In: WWF Promo Photos


One of the more interesting things pulled from yesterday's haul were several 8x10 color promos from 1990. A few of them were from a joint WWF-Toys R Us promotional effort. The others were available through the WWF's merchandise catalog or by joining their fan club.

These are tough to come by, but we've kept things affordable by pricing them comparably to the market. Better yet, shipping is free, whether you buy one or five.

The photos are a less orthodox way of reliving a colorful era in pro wrestling. Check them all out here.

Just In: Giant WWF PPV Programs

It's always fun to dig up something a bit unusual to share with everyone. Here's one of those instances. Before WWE saturated the market with pay-per-view events, there was your basic four (or if you're a purist, two or three) events each year. Programs from these events were one of the easiest ways to capture the essence of each show long after the event had finished.

For Summerslam '94, the WWF began a brief stint of releasing giant-sized programs for their PPV events. These magazines differed from the standard PPV programs in two distinct ways:

  • Size: The actual dimensions of the magazines dwarfed the standard program, measuring about 13 inches in length. This drove home the idea that the fan was buying something that shouldn't be trashed at the end of the night when the event was over.
  • A huge poster: This actually started with the Survivor Series '94 program. For the extra five bucks, people who bought these huge programs also got a massive pull-out poster. These bad boys were practically worth the price of admission alone, measuring over 40 inches in length.
We're happy to make four of these programs available for your collecting needs. Enjoy.

Just In: Vintage WWF Magazines & Programs


I get to thumb through a lot of cool stuff going through the restocking process. Few items give me more enjoyment than WWF magazines, specifically from the mid to late 1980s.

There's just something about those particular magazines that make it tough to actually list them with the intention of selling them to someone else. I fight the temptation to just sock them away in my private stash.


This week brought forth a mighty temptation: 25 WWF Magazines and programs from this specific era. That these magazines were in especially great condition only made it tougher to list them with the knowledge that they'll probably be fleeing from my life very soon.

But my loss is your gain. And what a gain. Here are some of the highlights from this batch:

This is just a taste of what's available in our WWF Magazine & WWF Programs sections in our eBay store. Look around and you'll see what I mean.
