Searching for stuff to get signed, IMO these are the ones that are really either difficult or practically impossible to find merchandise
very difficult:
Baby Doll Sensation Sherry Stan Hansen Tony Atlas (singles)
practically impossible:
Tony Atlas and Rocky Johnson as a tag team Tom Prichard (singles or tag) Midnight Express Condrey version Rockin' Robin Dick Slater Buddy Jack Roberts (though at least he's getting a figure soon) Boris Zhukov Lanny Poffo
You can actually more easily find Doink the Clown merchandise than any of these listed.

What exactly are you looking for? (I will assume something more than just 8 x 10's)

Practically anything. Mags, posters, whatever. Even 8x10s are the easiest but why pay $5+ if they’ll only be $2 at the fanfest.
I would have thought Sherri might have been a tad easier.

very difficult:
Baby Doll - Had NWA Trading cards, a PWI centerfold, JCP Tshirt, and countless magazine pinups and posters Sensation Sherry - Had numerous WCW and WWF trading cards and is on several magazine covers Stan Hansen - LOTS of magazine covers (especially Japanese), Japanese wrestling figures and an AWA Remco wrestling figure Tony Atlas (singles) - Has a Legends of Wrestling figure easily available for under $5 and lots of magazine covers
practically impossible:
Tony Atlas and Rocky Johnson as a tag team - WWF programs Tom Prichard (singles or tag) Midnight Express Condrey version - Decent amount of mag covers Rockin' Robin Dick Slater - One GREAT mag cover vs Flair Buddy Jack Roberts (though at least he's getting a figure soon) Boris Zhukov - AWA wrestling figure (of course it brings around $300 in the package) Lanny Poffo - Had Genius trading cards
You can actually more easily find Doink the Clown merchandise than any of these listed. That's because Doink came in the heyday of the WWF marketing machine and was an extremely marketable character to kids.

I couldn't find most of what you mentioned. Can you recommend me some mags with Baby Doll pin ups? Also, which PWI mag has a centerfold of her?
Also, if you have some Sherri trading cards let me know. I might be interested.
For Stan Hansen I couldn't find too many mags though I was looking at English ones. But I do have one good mag cover of him vs Backlund. Jap figures would be too pricey for me.
Yea I know about the LOW figure of Atlas. But IMO these figures kinda suck. Couldn't find too many good mags.
Can you show a picture of that Dick Slater cover with Flair?

The Slater mag of which he speaks is actually the first issue of Wrestling All Stars from October of '83. I actually just bought it a few days ago. He made various other magazine covers in the '80s, as well.

ok, where's a good place to look besides ebay? We can't do all the work for you. Look/call around your area for stores who may have some olf wrestling mags? used bookstores/sportscard stores are good places to check. I found a ton of old Wrestling mags a few years back at a used bookstore here in Vegas, guy wanted something like a quarter a piece for them, he had only a few i wanted, but they can be found. Check kayfabememories, crazymax.org, or oldschool-wrestling.com. Make a post requesting it, you might get lucky. Trust me, they'll have stuff there for you to buy, 3 bucks is not a lot for old mags, and MANY of them are rpiced at that.
