It is exciting to see an item I’ve never seen before, especially on the markedly degraded eBay site. Gibson employed some clever designers to produce such a colorful and stunning store or window display as this. Gibson really tried to keep pace with their contemporary competitors, Beistle and Dennison. This would certainly be an example where they outshone these rivals. This is an instance where I was undecided on bidding as the condition was rough enough that I was uncomfortable bidding much even though I’m certain I won’t see another. I struggle sometimes with this balancing act. I felt it would bring more than what it actually brought, so perhaps I should have tossed a bid into the mix. I felt the lucky buyer got a solid deal on a stellar item that certainly enhanced the sloppy one-size-fits-all category that eBay shoehorns items into these days. Bravo!
