I was initially surprised at the high price this German windowpane diecut fetched but then I looked at its condition. The size of the four designs lends itself to bent corners, lots of missing surface paper and lots of crackling, but they are largely missing in this fine example. The diecuts were made in the 1930s. I am very happy the seller, a true collecting ace, received such a strong price. Prices for vintage Halloween on eBay have been on the soft side for a while now, making this result even more satisfying.
