I'm coming from the autograph side. Can anyone please tell me what this card is and if it has any value? It's in a frame so I couldn't get a picture of the back. Thank you.

It was likely worth a couple hundred dollars, if not more, before it was trimmed.

Is it possible it's not trimmed, just seated behind the mat?

Its possible its not trimmed, depending on how it was matted. I do think the value if clean and untrimmed is in the $100-150 range, if trimmed, or stuck/glued to it then a whole lot less.

If untrimmed and graded highly I think it would go for a bit more than 150..... nice card

Well I do have 4 of them and have not paid over $155 for any, cheapest was $95 (Black & White). With the 1929-30 set many of the colors carry a premium, on the other hand the back & white is by far the most common. If a nice solid blue comes up for auction, that could ring up a nice sum.

I was also the Heritage winner of your exhibit lot, that included this same card in low grade, total for the 15 cards was $430 or about $29/card. So what do I know......

I was thinking higher grade, Maybe a 7? I know you collect these a lot....great cards!! (btw, you got a great deal in the HA auction, nice job and thanks for bidding and winning)
