BOLO Naked Ladies, Monsters and Flamingos



What?!

You heard right. Naked ladies, monsters and flamingos. What do they have in common?

I almost purchased a couple of vintage paint by numbers today at the thrift but passed them up because they weren't done very well. When I got home I decided to do a little research on paint by numbers and I saw that 'naked ladies', 'monsters' and 'flamingos' (not together) sell really well.

Some people collect them and display them in a group


Have you ever sold paint by numbers? I'll be keeping an eye out for these although I don't see very many paint by numbers myself.

  1. I've known that a lot of the paint by numbers can sell pretty well. Speaking of naked ladies. I find that old vintage pantyhose sell well if the cover art is really cool. Lots of collectors for that too.

    1. Hi Margaret. I sold a box of vintage pantyhose recently for pretty good money. I didn't realize the half nude lady on the front was what might have sold them! Good to know for future reference.

    1. How cool! You probably don't want to sell those, hey? They probably aren't naked ladies LOL.

  4. Sadly, I have never found any paint by numbers. But I remember my Mom doing them in the 60's. Would love to find some.

    1. I don't see them very often either Linda. Maybe I should have grabbed up the ones I did find.
