    Is this interesting to collectors at all? Not wanting to sell, just wondering.

    WWII Japanese Invasion Money - Philippines 10 Pesos

    Signed/Dated by actors in USO Camp Show “Petticoat Fever” in Manila on 4/27/45
    Jonathan Harris (later of "Lost in Space" fame)
    and John Baragrey

    "Good Luck Mattie - Jonathan Harris - John Baragrey 4/27/45"

    Thanks!

    It sounds like a neat piece of history to own. The value depends on who signed the bill.

    Anything is worth something to some one. Even a bag full of rocks. That's what appeals to us. It opens up a whole new field of idiots to everyone.

    I like rocks. I collect them as well. Some have cost a lot of $$$. :)

    Pretty neat. Jonathan Harris was Dr. Zachary in Lost In Space If memory serves me correctly. Not to sure about John Baragrey. What a nice novelty item.

    Then they are not rocks. They are minerals, quarts, geodes or similar. If they are just rocks, you just bought the farm.

    What is really sad is how I acquired it. I found it at a flea market with about 10 other notes both JIM's and other WWII period notes. They were all stapled to a felt covered cardboard then framed behind glass. When I found it, the staples had all rusted, it was a mess - probably been in there since the 50's. I knew they were not worth much, but it was history and wanted to preserve what was left.
