this is pretty cool.its a old program from (95) in San Diego.

hey Mark G,is this you?

Ron Marchlowski had some really cool stuff back in the day.He had lots of cool and rare milks like killer taylori etc...I wonder what ever happened to this group of zonata?

these guys made some really cool racks,display cases etc...

does anybody remember these?I have a bunch,this was before kingsnake took off.

this wasn't my first price list but still fun to look at it now.It was 6 pages long.LOL....the good old days when I had more time on my hands then since.

Dan Johnson had a real nice list.

Hope you liked this series.If any of you guys want to see a particlure one all the way through let me know.Its just kinda a pain since I don't have a scanner.

Nice job Shannon! Check out my tease below, you’ll see we have a few of the same lists! I’ll trade you anything for that Chris Cullata!!! I have Kirk Setser list from1995, Howie Sherman 1997,Pro Exotics 1995(I think), Professional Breeder 1994, but the real tragedy is throwing out stuff from Ross Allen, and REALLY old stuff. I literally had lists with tapirs, ocelots and unbelievable stuff on it when I was young. I think we should make more of an effort to preserve some of this stuff. It is a real documentary of the success of captive maintenance that is preserving some of these formerly very rare and now quite readily available gems. I hope to see some really old stuff on here eventually, when enough eyeballs check in...

LOL,,,I can see it now.We will start trding these lists like old baseball cards etc...
I have all the osbourn posters lists etc I just didn't post them.I also have the nice big fold out colored seven Generations and High Moutain and some others.
Yes,We should preserve as much of this as possible.

Here's a little bit more. I'm scanning and resizing to 1100 pixels, I wasn't sure about keeping them actual size.
I'd like to scan one entire Crutchfield price list, if you have not seen one it will blow you away. Somebody beg me to do it...

Inside cover, first page of BHB price list in your post above, showing prices...
Albino Honduran Milksnake-$3,000.00 you spoiled kids!!! (just kidding...)

“Hypomelanistic Brooks Un****ing believable!!!!!”

Go ahead, I dare you to just encourage me in the slightest...

Crutchfield Price list

This is a typical price list from 1994. I used to be blown away with every list that would arrive in the mail. I don’t know if there is anything like this in the United States anymore, or if there was anything like it then either. Check out the Epicrates variety! I know Glades moved up to Bushnell, anybody know if they are in the old Crutchfield building? I haven’t been up there in twelve years! I wonder what types of lizards one might find around that neighborhood? Yes there was an eighth page, with terms, guarantee and front of envelope area for mailing, I didn’t bother scanning that page.
Pour over it and enjoy!

It's funny to see that the prices on some stuff has changed so much and some stuff has s stayed almost exactly the same price??

I really like that on the Flora & Fauna list Albino Nelsoni are priced at $????????? .... And, now you just about get them for free when you purchase a deli cup!

Great Stuff!!! Thanks to all for posting..

I was just thinking about that when looking at the price of anery and hypo hondos.

Natural Selection Reptiles

Very cool! I have some of those lists from "back in the day." If I still have one from the mid-80s when Pueblans were "new" and cost $400, I'll post it (I think their price has come down a bit since then).

Third Eye

That brings back memories. I have a bunch of oldies somewhere too.

South Eastern Reptile Propagation

Thanks,thats very cool.

Try telling this to a kid nowadays,lol. If you were one of the few milk collectors(breeders were even more rare)back in the 80s you were calling and trying to have the breeder/dealer DESCRIBE IN WORDS what a milk looked like......Remember we all had every milk book and would say"its kinda like the one on page 346...". I find myself still living in those days a bit when someone asks for a pic of a anake I dont have yet....

Wow Shannon, it's funy because I, too, had gone through some old storage not too long ago and found most of the old lists you've displayed as well as a few other (i.e.: Seven Generations Reps, Prarieland Herp/Larry Keller, John Fraser, etc.) Feels good to know that I'm not the lone nostalgia extraordinaire!

I have a bunch of old price lists somewhere starting from the early 80s. I think my first was a price list from The Shed from around 1983 (when I first discovered herp wholesalers - what a life changing experience that was!).

I will have to try and dig them out (if I still have them?) and scan them.

Someone commented about all the Epicrates on Crutchfield's list. I remember considering buying all the weird Epicrates that were on lists in the 80s and setting up a breeding group of them. Now many of the species aren't available at all. Species like E. gracilis and E. chrysogaster were pretty cheap and E. striatus were a dime a dozen in all the petstores. I would love to try and keep E. gracilis now! Oh well.

Chris,
That would be cool if you can find them.I would love to see some others.If you find them and don't care about them to much you can send them my way and they will forever be safe.
