Happy Doctor Who Day, fellow Whovians!

We are thrilled to celebrate this special day that marks the anniversary of our beloved Time Lord's first appearance on our screens. The adventures of the Doctor have been a source of inspiration and joy for us here at the Thompson Library, and we are excited to share some fantastic updates with you.

Rebranding Our eBay Store

First, we are delighted to announce that we have rebranded our eBay store! Formerly known as OldDustyThings, we are now proudly operating under the name Thompson Library Surplus. This change reflects our dedication to sharing the treasures from our world-record-holding Doctor Who collection with fellow fans and collectors. Our new name signifies a fresh start while honoring the legacy of the Thompson Library. We invite you to explore our updated store, where you will find a variety of unique and rare items, meticulously curated from our junk duplicate pile! You can check out our store by clicking here.

Featured on a Podcast

In other exciting news, we were recently featured on a podcast hosted by our dear friend and fellow collector, Larry! During the episode, we had the opportunity to delve into the history of our collection, share some of our most prized pieces, and discuss the thrill of curating and preserving such an extensive assortment of Doctor Who memorabilia. It was an honor to be part of the show, and we encourage you to give it a listen for some behind-the-scenes insights into the Guinness process. You can listen to it by clicking here.

Thank you for joining us on this incredible journey. Your support and enthusiasm are what keep the spirit of Doctor Who alive. Stay tuned for more updates, exciting finds, and Whovian delights from the Thompson Library. Until then, happy Doctor Who Day, and may your travels through time and space be filled with wonder and adventure. ~William
