I think you selling it short. Brent. '74 is a sought after auto set. The card (from what's visible) isn't in bad condition, and the auto is a great specimen. $40 would be easy.

It's Gibson, an extremely easy autograph to obtain, and these are all in significantly better condition and hardly sold for anything.

As I said, the autograph is much nicer than at least two of your examples. I don't see how you are valuing it at $20 slabbed????

Thanks for the replies and links fellas; I appreciate it! Looks like my friend's friend's brother isn't gonna get incredibly wealthy on this one.......I'll break the bad news to him...LOL....Perhaps he'd be willing to do a trade for something else...
