Old Discs

[Frank Delicious]

So as I was looking up something I stumbled across this site:

Pieradise

And they have some awesome pics of collectibles.

My favorites are this roc:

and this Whammo:

So if you like awesome pics of old discs, check out their collection which is apparently still growing

Wow, I really like that Wham-O!
'90fresh geometry, hologram foil, silver disc... it has it all!

I've got a funny story about one of those Rocs. At the 07 Friz, I got a glow football stamped Sanny Roc almost new for $5. That night I was slightly intoxicated. Who am I kidding, I was really drunk. One of my really good buddies show up. He's into really old discs too. I run into my tent and grab the Roc to show him. It was cold out and when I was showing it to him, I gripped it in my normal grip and my thumb busted a huge hole in the flightplate. :|

Awww... why did you have to bring up the TP Comet again?!? He was almost over it!

I actually forgot about that, I was thinking about the CE teebird and a sweet wizard (maybe proto)

Probably cracked 20 or so 8x-11x rocs 10 or so 10x Aviars, a few CT Challengers, lots DX rocs and aviars, tons of wizards, and lost 4 or 5 01 CE Rocs

Those were two of the weirdest ones because they brearly hit anything. My buddy just busted an 86 mold, not softie. he got it at a garage sale for .25 and it totally exploded on the first toss to the basket

 

[dgdave]

said 86

Thanks for posting this. It isn't often I bookmark something disc golf related anymore.

Good stuff! Always fun to look at old stamps. And WTF is up with that Lizard Baby disc? :? :lol:

 

[BrainStorm69]

Sweet old plastic! And I have few of those myself...
