That's a nice one! Don't know myself if it's a part of the centenial or not.

Where did you find the plate image? eBay or where?

Beautiful plate. I used to have a few myself (of the Three Stooges) and this looks like it could be from the Franklin Mint?

Hi All

It was one ebay at $48.00 dollars buy it now plus shipping.

Have to admit it does look one of the better plates. Wonder is this to be a release this year.

Seller said he couldnt ship to May 22nd

As this plate is now going for silly prices on ebay here are the links to Bradford Exchange in US and UK were it can be ordered direct for a fraction of the price.

Thanks for the links, Mike! For a little over $40 including shipping here in the states, one could own that plate easily.

Not too expensive considering the prices on some collector plates.

Considering some sellers are going for $100 to $150 buy it nows plus whtaever they can imagine for shipping it makes sense to buy from Bradford Exchange while the plate is still available.

Unlike the Franklin Mint plates which were churned out I think this one will disappear after a short time. So act now if anybody wants one.

Hi Bill

I see the John Wayne 100th Anniversary Plate has now developed into a set of six. I will post a picture of second plate soon.

Also, a set of 8 inch figures are to be released by Bradford Exchange. Link to first figure attached.

If that's an accurate representation of the figurine, I'd say it's very well done.

Although I made a vow not to buy anything else from Bradford Exchange (because after I bought that first Duke plate they offered, I was absolutely inundated with solicitations to buy other stuff, most of which held no interest for me at all), I can feel my resolve weakening. :teeth_smile:

1st & 2nd Plates in John Wayne 100 Year Series. There will be six in total for this set.
