Well, I search the forum and ebay, not much to be found. Lack of interest or rare? Estimated value for a F-G common? (Lapp). Saw it today on my annual excursion for the holiday but had to pass on it - it exceeded my whim threshhold.
O/t - the same shop had some Wildwest Gum cards, made by John H. Dockman & Sons - he wouldn't sell because he couldn't price them - and right now either can I. Is there a price guide for these? Is Sitting Bull a key card (I hope)? Any info on these would also be appreciated.
Not looking for offers, not looking to sell (esp since I do not have them) Just need some basic info to see if they worth picking up later. Thanks - Will

Tough cards to find and getting really expensive lately. I recently paid $500+ for a GAI 1.5 at auction. A few years ago I got a PSA 3 Mack for under $100. I've got 11 out of 18 but only one of those was picked up in the last three years. Also, I think most people prefer either tobacco or caramel/candy cards.

I'm probably the leading expert on cards featuring Indians. Wild West Caramel cards very attractive and much harder to find than A&G Indian Chiefs. Key cards to the set are Sitting Bull, Bill Cody and Teddy Roosevelt. Prices are in flux right now, mostly in the upward direction. I sold Ex/NM examples of Cody and Roosevelt for almost $800 about year ago. Not sure what a nice Sitting Bull would command. I would assume VG commons are going for $20 or more now. I think the days of when I bnuying them for a few dollars a piece are long gone.

Here's a link to website about these cards

for the responses. I'll try to get them when I go back in January for a wedding. Also had a box of T206's I didn't have time to go through. Older guy, not into grading, but NY prices.
