Matt:
I would think that the original broadside would be made out of cardboard. From the scan of that Heritage piece, it appears to be paper/poster material. My guess is that was a reproduction of an original cardboard broadside and, therefore, worth very little money. Even in 2008, the astute Negro League collectors just on Net 54 alone would have certainly paid well into 4-figures for an original broadisde with that type of content and player photos.
