Palitoy and Tri Logo Proof Cards or Cromalins.

[Grant]

Hello,

I have noticed that there never seems to be any Palitoy or Tri Logo proof cards or cromalins for sale. Do they exist or are they just very rare to find ?.
I would like to find a Tri Logo Anakin proof or cromalin but cant find any examples of any card anywhere only Kenner examples seem to show up.

Cheers Grant

I have never seen any myself. If they exist they are locked up in someones collection or in the Palitoy dump.

AFA have graded a few Palitoy "unused" cardbacks..

As far as I know there are no LL , Trilogo or Kenner Canadian proofs, even the GDE ones that turned up a few years back were proven to be fake..

The Kenner USA ones only exist because an employee of the time had the sense to take them home and stash them. That's all there is to it, as far as we know nobody over here in the UK did this. Tri logo ones will undoubtedly have been produced, but they just ended up in the bin as the American ones should have done.

It's a shame, but how much stuff do we all throw away every day without a second thought that might one day be worth something!

Thats a cool sheet of proofs. I bet they would bring a large amount of money.

Its a real pity that no one at the palitoy factorys stopped to think about keeping proof cards and cromalins
Some of the card art is excellent on the Tri Logos.

thanks again.

Its a shame no 1 at palitoy kept these things. But you never know 1 day they might turn up

Cheers mate.

I will take mine round to show you. It has got a little edge wear but the colours are bright
