Thread: A piece of the red tail?

I have one of the widget salt/pepper shakers from biz class--think I could get a bid??? even tho it's hardly coveted, I find it adorable!

Presented only to NW employees and highly coveted, one of my coworkers has decided to let hers go and I thought I&#39;d let you guys know and have a crack at making her an offer as apposed to sending it to Ebay -

Let me know if you are interested and make an offer that I can take back to her.[/b]

I couldn&#39;t find any on ebay today for a reference price. I remember there used to be heaps and always wondered why people would want to get rid of a good piece of aviation history.

I&#39;m interested but don&#39;t want to make a laughable offer. What are the price ranges on these things?

They were running between 1 and 2 hundred at the time (and up!), and that&#39;s when the market was full of them - if you are serious, send me an e-mail (Jmprpaws (At) hotmail (dot) com and I&#39;ll put you in touch with her.

Found two on eBay and both are not selling.

Item One
Item Two

To be fair, the first is a &#39;nothing&#39; - a scrap. The second is the same as what we have (and my co-worker is selling) and it looks like it&#39;s just been listed.

See what it does over the next week.... that will be a more honest gauge of what they are going for.

Yeah I&#39;ll say, I had to enlarge just to see it. Item 1 is out.
Just how big is this Jumper?

This is mine (just like the one my coworker has) and in a pinch I&#39;d say it&#39;s 4.5 X 3 and comes with a lovely red box.

I&#39;m keeping mine not out of company loyalty, but for what the whole airline experience had done for me -

Wow - just realized that the Ebay piece is from the same aircraft as my own... Hell, I might have to sign up a Paypal account to get it and have bookends!

Right now I have lots of AA stuff and a few replica scale model aircraft but nothing from NW. Since it&#39;s looking like you aren&#39;t going to give me yours, I&#39;ll see how the bidding goes.
