Ten Rare Collectibles and some links

	This Cheese box came out in 1996 in Sweden and had small Phantom cards inside featuring images of Billy Zane from the Paramount film
	This is a very old US Phantom pin with Wilson McCoy Art
	At the Phantom premiere in 1996, there were Phantom cookies and milk. I put these in my pocket and one broke. I would be surprised if anyone else saved one. (Billy and Lee were at the premiere and signed my program, but I figured the cookies were even more rare.)
	In Brasil, the Phantom is usually red. This figure came out when the movie came out, I have both red and purple versions, but the red version on a cardboard with a purple Phantom illustration seemed unusual.
	This little wrist toy has a tiny flying saucer that is launched by a spring. The art looks like it's swiped from Bill Lignante's illustrations.
	This coin came from South America.
	This is a life-cast of Billy Zane's head with mask and cowl. (no tattoos)
	This is a ring just like Billy wore in the movie. It looks like the Granny May rings, but it's the real thing...silver with a closed back. I would never have gotten it or the life cast without the kindness of Matt Britton who was responsible for the costume. (Watch for an upcoming article on rings by Pete Klaus.)
	These are casts of the Phantom's head by Charlee Flatt showing the evolution of his design.
	This is the movie standee. Mine is still in the box. It's 10 feet tall with UV lights inside and lots of skulls. This is from a photograph from George Olesen who has one too.
