Help with Photo
Posted By: <b>John </b><p>Dear Board;<BR><BR>I found this photo recently in an antique market of a New York Highlander player. Does anybody know who this player is? Any help would be great. A ballpark of value would be great too I don’t collect photos that much.<BR><BR><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/piojohn/card/websize/newyork.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Hankron</b><p>I don't know who is the player.<BR><BR>The cliched but correct phrase is, "It's worth what you can get someone to pay for it." Having said that, any turn of the century cabinet photo depicting a Major League player in uniform is rare. If the photo has good eye appeal should be worth at bare minimum $100.<BR><BR>The mount on your photograph obviously has heavy damage, but the player image is sharp. It appears to be a fine photograph to have found at an antique store.

Posted By: <b>John</b><p>I have yet to buy the photo the dealer is asking $380 which seems a bit high. I thought I would check here before I purchased. Does that sound like a fair price?

Posted By: <b>Tom Boblitt</b><p>a ML cabinet like that in really nice shape at like $500-$700 for a 'common' guy but in that condition, I'd be hardpressed to pay more than $150 to $200.
