I'm always amazed at the prices realized for this piece (fantasy, repro, or otherwise). Used to be that there were about a dozen on ebay at any given time. I have seen them sell as high as the $90 range, and have also seen a slew of them fail to make an opening bid of $9.99.
The interesting thing is that the price realized is usually in direct contrast to the condition. The beat-up/torn/creased/faded ones often go for $40 - $50, while the perfect ones go for almost nothing. I guess collectors want to convince themselves they're getting something old (regardless of how many are out there...)
