Things you've kept that might be worth something now

I've got an original Star Wars movie poster from the first film (is that the fourth episode?). I'm not remotely interested in Star Wars but looked into it a while ago. It's apparently by Tom Chantrell and is the pre-oscars edition. Some joker has one on Ebay for about £2800 but a guy in a local comic shop said it would be worth about fifty quid.
God knows. It can stay in the cupboard.

I picked up a copy of a climbing book 25 years ago or so. Read it a few times, left it on the shelf. Then a few years back I found out that somebody accidentally destroyed all the master plates and so it's become rather collectible. It's never going to make me rich, but it's apparently worth a few beer tokens these days https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/09063713...
That's a great book, done a few climbs from that!nicanary said:
Minty was a character in Eastenders. The word is mint.
The word is Minty.... Adjective. relating to or suggestive of mint. If it was in mint condition, I would have said so. Its not, so it's minty!!
And who watches Eastenders these days?? Have they got a 900r on there??

My apologies. Never heard of minty being used that way.

Musical item got me thinking. I've got a 1978/9 Ovation Glen Campbell electric acoustic in sunburst. It's immaculate apart from a crack in the varnish where the neck meets the body but its unchanged since I got in 1980. It's been. Suggested it's worth £1/1200 or so - a lot more than I paid for it anyway.
