Hi,
I have a large revolving Tintin rocket bookstand that used to be used in a bookshop to display Tintin books.
I would like to sell it but am unsure whether anyone would be interested in buying it and have no idea what it is worth.
It is about 7ft tall and has sustained some very minor damage but is still in use every day. It has the Tintin logo around the top.
All advice gratefully received.

Where do you live? It would definitely need to be picked up

I'm sure there are people who would be interested in buying it. If it was me I would be tempted to put it on ebay at a reserve price and have â€œbuyer to collectâ€ for delivery, unless...

...does it fly...?

It sounds like the same type of Moonrocket I bought my first Tintin books from. Im sure there would be a lot of interest for nostalgia reasons. It would be probably the best possible way to exhibit a full collection.

Thanks for all the advice.
Happy to supply a picture but unsure how to go about it. Is it possible to post it to this website in some form?

Had thought about using ebay- but have never used it so again rather hesitant.

Came across this from the Publishers Group Canada. You can buy your own Tintin rocket display complete with 132 books.

Only $1973.40!

Have finally got round to putting this bookstand on ebay. Should be on within the next few days.
It's about 7ft tall, bright red and revolves! It has the tin tin logo around the top.
Check it out!
Only problem - it's very heavy and doesn't come to pieces.
