Default Paper Policeman, Help!

Here's my test for. Give sincere (if approximate) answers.

How much would you pay for each these items? (all grade Near Mint)

1) 1909 T206 Honus Wagner
2) Play Ball Honus Wagner
3) 1976 Topps Honus Wagner
4) 1910 Reach Guide with picture of Honus Wagner in it
5) The above picture of Wagner cut out of the Reach Guide
6) Wagner picture cut ouf of 2002 Beckett magazine
Computer printout of online picture of Wagner

After you give (to yourself is okay) honest answers about what you would pay, and what you would advise a non-collecting good friend to pay for these itesm if offered on line-- I don't want to hear anymore about how the hobby is a bunch of elitiest snobs, because they think #1 is more expensive than #2 or #3 should be more expensive than #6. At the least, you just prove that you are as much of an elist snob as everyone else in the world.
