Thanks guys always fun to find that last card! I've been chasing that Nitschke on Ebay for awhile, it's not a rare card, but I guess it's popular among collectors
For a price guide, I use the 2012 "Standard Catalog of Vintage Football" and it values this card at $80 in NM condition. I was looking for a "collector grade" example for about 20% of book and I think this dealers price was fair.
I'm experiencing the same thing as I try to complete my 1962 set, the cards aren't rare, but dealers don't have a problem selling them with a little "mark-up"
These last four 1962 Topps "black beauties" will complete my 1960s Topps run:
#17 Ditka RC
#36 Ernie Davis RC
#88 Roman Gabriel RC
#90 Fran Tarkenton RC
