[buymycards]

This is a Type 1. 2 similar condition Type 2's closed on eBay this afternoon for over $300 each. They had writing, heavy wear, and a hole punched in the card.

I bid on them, but I didn't think they would go for more than $150 each and I was at work when the auctions closed, so I was blown out of the water.

It is surprising how many of these cards, both Type I and Type 2, have a hole punched in the card, and 2 numbers on the back, with a line through one of the numbers.

I wonder if these cards could be redeemed for something, such as tobacco or cigarettes?

I haven't been able to get a T214 yet, but it is on my want list, along with a Type 2 Red Cross.
