Default Newpaper value

I think that you have come across a very undervalued part of the hobby. Take a look at ebay and you will be able to pick up some great newspapers in the 20-75 dollar range. For example, I was able to pick up an 1858 issue of the New York Times with a write up of the Fashion Course Games (the first all star match) for under $50. If there are good pictures on your item I would put it in the $75-100 range. A word of caution- the type of paper used for early 1900's papers is extremly poor quality and becomes very fragile. In any event souds like a great paper- just not something that will draw a huge amount at auction at this time.
