Posted: 7/28/10 at 3:38pmI have three of them. But what on earth makes them worth more than the paper they are printed on?

Fans with money!
Lemme tell you, this is a wonderful thing to take advantage of. 
You might know of David Miller, who's currently in that "operatic" pop group, Il Divo. I sold three pamphlets with his name and headshot in them -- for an opera he was going to do before he dropped out to join Il Divo -- to a desperate Il Divo fangirl in the UK for $30. No, not $30 for the three. $30 each.
I went out and bought some nice pants after that.

David Miller bought you pants! That's a great story! Maybe Idina Menzel would like to pay my rent.

Probably the glee fans that recognize Idina, because that's the advertising pull.
Auggie, would you give up any of yours?

I still have in mint condition my WICKED Playbill from early in its Broadway run when Kristin performed with a bedazzled neckbrace due to a neck injury. The Playbill included an insert stating why she is wearing the bedazzled neckbrace.
I wonder how much THIS one is worth.

I got Laura Bell Bundy to sign one of her full page Glinda Understudy Slips when she was in Legally Blonde.
She cracked part of that crooked, Republican Party wife smile of hers and said very flatly, "funny."

Posted: 7/28/10 at 5:03pmI have a couple, both signed and unsigned in my house...I wonder how much the signed one would get me on eBay, it's pristine, from previews, and signed by both Idina and Kristin.

Posted: 7/28/10 at 5:05pm$50-$100 if it's signed by the two of them. Closer to $50 if you have the IMenzel and K___ Ch____. Closer to $100 if you have their full names.

I'm actually really interested in this.
kchenofan's computer is broken right now. This is her fridge. Now, you can leave a message, but say it slowly, so I can write it on a post-it note and stick it to myself.

Posted: 7/28/10 at 5:18pmJeez. Maybe it's time to hock my pre-Broadway playbill.

Posted: 7/28/10 at 6:03pmHow much would mine go for, as signed by Menzel, Chenoweth, and Grey?
How to properly use its/it's:
Its is the possessive. It's is the contraction for it is...
#17Original Wicked Playbills
Posted: 7/28/10 at 8:36pmI have one. Just one though. I'd rather sell it when it gets REALLY rare. Like 25 years more rare.
#18Original Wicked Playbills

Posted: 8/8/10 at 12:04amHi I am VERY interested in a Original Cast Wicked playbill. And if you were willing to let one go by trading for one of my playbills, such as an original cast playbill from The Addams Family, a closing night performance playbill from HAIR, a hairspray (2007) Playbill, or jersey boys playbill, and many more. Please get back to me. And if you don't want to trade maybe I can buy the playbill and we can work out a price. Thank you.
#23Original Wicked Playbills
Posted: 8/8/10 at 12:08amI have an original and will never let it go!
Just give the world Love.

Posted: 8/8/10 at 12:20amI have original cast Playbills as well which I would be willing to sell or trade if you have something I really want in return.
Dean: Can I tell you something?
Lorraine: That depends on what it is.
Dean: I think you're really really pretty.
Lorraine: (after a pause) Ok, you can tell me that.
