What is the highest price paid for a baseball postcard?

[slidekellyslide]

Since we seem to be having this convo in more than one thread why not concentrate the discussion here...maybe we can come up with a top ten list of highest prices paid.

A few to start from links in the other two threads.

Leland Giants - $22,137.50

I'm guessing even without the autograph on there this one would sell for $20,000+, but it's hard to throw that one on this list simply because of the auto.
