andy beckerhi steve,
there isn't much of a market for graded silks. as you said, the two majors do not grade them. there are nice silks out there.....it's just that not many are graded.
if i owned those (and wanted to sell), i think $750 for johnson and $750 for matty would both be strong prices.
i would also say that silk prices have started to really climb in recent months, so perhaps a bit more.
i have seen less johnsons surface than mattys.
many silks were double and triple printed on the original sheets.....lew's book does give a detailed breakdown of sheet configuration.
feel free to email me with any more silk questions.
regards,
andy
