I have some Twin Peaks autographs that I have finally decided to offer for sale / trade, including a few rare signatures from main cast members who don’t usually attend conventions. I have personally collected these autographs over the years and they are all authentic. :wink: If interested, please s...

Everything you've stated (and including the architecture) would indicate that the Simpsons are referencing the hotel from The Shining just as much if not more than the Great Northern in Twin Peaks. :) I'm still not seeing that they were intentionally referencing Twin Peaks. Very smart theory, jlyon...

The architecture of the building to me is an evident reference to the Great Northern, guys! Yeah, it is not an exact cartoon replica, but just take a look to the images to find out exactly where the inspiration come from (style, shapes, colors, windows, parking lot, etc.)... Please also take a look ...

More useful posts: <<I'd personally stay far away from any Star Pics Auto, seeing most of the big names end up getting forged in sports and non sports.

I'm not an expert. However, I own all of the cards right now (minus the Joan Chen which I've owned in the past) I'm just skeptical. Everyone should be. Also, what's interesting is that the seller states he's pulled all of the autos from packs. Well, as mega collector Bruce Phillips has confirmed, v...

I never had the ability at that time to subscribe. I really wish they would put them online, as I have yet to ever read a single copy. You can still order many of the back issues directly from them here: http://spectrummagazines.bizland.com/storefront2.html They could scan and sell sold out back is...

Some months ago I found somewhere on the web this photo: http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/1070/cardsy.jpg As you can see, the guy who posted the picture also enclosed a close up of the "Star Pics authentic"seals. Three different seals . So, here is another question: do legit Twin Peaks a...

Here is the article: << Star Pics Autographs. . . All of the sudden there are a bunch of Star Pics Twin Peaks autographs hitting the market. Sadly a bunch of them are likely forgeries.

Buying autographs can be a risky business, and many collectors think that the safest way to go when looking for authentic signatures is to only buy certified trading cards from well known companys. Well, you have to know that there are people out there who want to con you with counterfeit certified ...

Hi, everyone! :D I'm new to the forum and I have to say that I love it: what a great place for real Peaks fans! I never realized there was a quality forum like this dedicated to our favorite TV series. :oops: Well, never too late! :lol: I'm very busy at the Great Northern but I will do my best to su...
