What is the highest price paid for a baseball postcard?
 

Since we seem to be having this convo in more than one thread why not concentrate the discussion here...maybe we can come up with a top ten list of highest prices paid.

A few to start from links in the other two threads.

1915 Boston Red Sox Team w/Ruth - $26,662.50
