Knowledge.

Like what inventions will take hold, what won't. A few printing secrets, like hey ALC, don't give those scammers 17K for their bogus aluminum plate system (from a real case where they bought a process that didn't and would never work, and sued the "inventors" who ran off with the proceeds. )

Maybe one trip swapping the info for a few select items... Wagner, a couple other cards, a sheet or two, like a piedmont sheet and a Drum sheet.

Maybe a couple trips, one to sell, then one once the proof happened as you said, collecting the pay and buying cards on the secondary market. An offer of 5 or 10 cents each for old baseball cards should bring out a lot of sellers.
