Very cool! The only time I got a "find" like that was at an area auction about 10 years ago. I was there with my parents and my mom bought a box lot of paper ephemera that was mostly vintage Valentines. I think she bought the box for like 40-50 bucks.
The runner brought it back to us and I was rooting through the other paper. I came across an old blank check from a bank in California. I looked on the back and saw "Curly - 3 Stooges" signed on it.
Needless to say, that by piecing out the Valentine's and flipping the Curly sig on eBay, my mom got a nice return.
