I recently bought a Type I photo of Bronko Nagurski
I already have this one, raw, from the same session:
The slab is light and thin, similar to a clam shell package (I've never handled one before so that was interesting to me). So, I thought of having the three point stance one slabbed too, but when I saw the price on the slabbing of $50 I balked. Since I've seen photos from this session sell for upwards of $100 raw but not much more than that, I cannot see adding $50 to the cost. Leaves me with the question, do I bust the new one out of there or leave it?
More broadly, what is the Board's experience with slabbed photos that aren't rookie year Babe Ruth caliber? If there isn't any real added value to the slab, I would rather have it in a mylar sheet in my album with the other one.
