Harmon Killebrew Bobblehead - Payette Version 2

I plan on blogging about some rare Minnesota bobbleheads over the next couple of months.  I've gotten some questions recently about misc giveaways and whats rare and whats not, why and why not, etc.  So I figured, why not blog about them.  So am sharing my knowledge on several.  And I will say, just because its rare, doesn't mean its valuable.  Rarity and Value do not always coincide.  Supply and Demand determine value.  Quantity available determines rarity.  

Here is one of the rarest Harmon Killebrew bobbles there is.  This comes from Payette, Idaho and Harmon Killebrew Days.  This is the second version and much rarer than the first.  Many of these broke in shipping and were destroyed.  It's also a relatively unknown bobblehead because of the rarity.  Prices on this one can be all over the board.  Ones in less that optimal condition will come in around $50ish while ones in nice condition can easily fetch 3 figures!  

Twins Top 10 List - #7

A little foreshadowing - this isn't the only Harmon Killebrew bobble in the top 10.  Harmon grew up in Payette, Idaho where the city annually celebrates Harmon Killebrew Days!  This was a giveaway at one of the first Killebrew Days, depicting Harmon in his high school jersey.  I believe this one was limited to something around 250 (or less).  Obviously he's a local hero so these bobbles don't show up very often.  Luckily for me, mine is autographed!  

Harmon Killebrew Payette Bobblehead

This is a new addition of mine.  A pretty rare Harmon Killebrew bobblehead from Payette, Idaho.  Killebrew grew up in Payette and this is the first edition of a Killebrew Payette bobblehead.  This is an extremely scarce bobble and rarely is seen for anything under $150.  The autograph, like most of Killebrew's is as solid as they come.  Pretty sweet bobble!!
