Celebrating 35 Years of PEZ Passion: John Laspina's Price Guide Legacy Price Guide to PEZ

John Laspina has been a stalwart presence in the PEZ community since its inception, and this year holds special significance! It marks the 35th anniversary of the sole PEZ price guide—an incredible milestone when you consider that John has diligently produced these invaluable guides every year for three and a half decades, resulting in an impressive 271-page tome!

Moreover, it's worth noting that the quality of paper used for these guides is exceptional, boasting a smooth texture that allows for easy erasing—making pencil the preferred writing tool. With such a vast array of PEZ dispensers to keep track of, this comprehensive guide is an indispensable companion for any avid collector. 

Just when you think you've amassed them all, a glance at the guide reveals many more PEZ adventures to come!
Below is the information directly from John's post. 
John Laspina's Post: 
My new price guide is back from the printers. It will be $36 shipped. Why the increase in price? My printer costs increased yet again from last year. Plus additional pages and the increase cost in shipping them also increased. I accept the no fee, friends and family paypal to john@jjpezpal.com I also accept checks and money orders.The price guide will be shipped media mail to the USA. Shipping outside the USA will be more. The price guide weighs over 1 pound.
My new 2024 Price Guide #35 has 271 pages, 10 more than last year. The popularity of Pez continued to soar in 2023. A lot of that can still be contributed to the Pez Outlaw movie on Netflix. The result is that the prices of Pez dispensers have continued to increase in price, similar to the 1990s. All this has been captured in my new price guide. 
Whats new in my new 2024 pez price guide?
As stated above, we saw LOTS of price increases the past year. Dispenser values have been updated to reflect these increases. Lots of new Pez dispenser releases from the middle of 2023 thru the beginning of 2024 are included (that I knew of). Also a few variations from earlier years have been added.
Typos fixed. New typos unfortunately added. No matter how many times we proof read it, we find little errors. Hopefully we found most of them.

There will still be no pics in the guide. I have been working with 2 others to do a non-pez pic book. Once we release it, I will begin the pez pic price guide.
Thank you.
