Help requested - fair value for this baseball trophy

[baseball tourist]

c. 1915, approx 18 inches high - Boy's Brigade" , Vancouver. Seller has it as part of a lot of Boys Brigade items including other trophies but may parse it out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Normally a loving cup won't fetch too much, but this trophy has lot of nice detail. The runner sliding into base matches the image seen on Spalding plaques, medals and trophies, so I'm assuming could have been made by Dieges Clust. The base has nice detail and it looks like it has a spot for the engraving of the winner each year, making this a perpetual trophy. I would put value at $300-400.

Due to the lower plaques on the base I would add another $100 to 200 to Joes estimate. Nice trophy

I might go even a little higher. The trophy appears to be in great condition. Getting very tough to find these without dings, debts and significant tarnishing.

And the sliding player image is pretty fantastic. Really well executed and seldom-seen. I could easily see this one going in the $550 -$650 range.

Great post!
