When I saw your reference to a $10,000 Jackie check, I knew immediately who would be selling it.
History Direct aka History for Sale is the most absurd priced autograph dealer in the world. I think they must only sell to the drunks and high rollers in Vegas who stumble into their showroom.
But they don't buy anything either.
If you write to them and offer them some quality items they reply with:

Thank you for writing us, but we are not currently acquiring new items nor accepting consigned documents for our auctions/store sales. Several auctioneers advertise in "Autograph" magazine. It is sold in better book stores and some of them may be interested in your piece. If our needs change in the future, we would be happy to contact you should you wish.

Sincerely,

Gaii Creed
