Tell your wife....her Delehanty card is one of the nicest looking T206 AB cards that I have seen. And, I have seen many AB cards.

Also, since she enjoys reading about these T206 guys, tell her that Frank Delehanty in 1903 (only 20 years old) had the sad task of identifying the body
his brother, "Big Ed" Delehanty, who had died mysteriously at Niagara Falls.

Thanks for posting.

I read a great book about that tragic incident a few years back. I wish I remembered the name of it.

I assume rarity and condition is not the only factor in determining the value.

Thanks for the help guys.

I would guess 500? maybe $600 for Delehanty if it is as nice as it looks in the scans. Cobbie would sell for multiples of that number.

Maybe someone else will chime in with their opinion

edit: looking at it again, it is a beautiful card. my numbers may be low.
