I missed that the letter was signed, my bad. I was looking at the OP's picture, and couldn't tell it was signed. So yes, maybe something north of 150k would be a reasonable estimate. But not a million, won't happen.

What is the..."thing"...in the bottom left corner of the board? Looks like a modern day "book" card but obviously isn't. ???

Appears to be an 1860's-1880's CDV/Cabinet photo album. Pretty common and of no value really to the lot. I could see a couple of people getting crazy on the letter since it's historical significance and all those signatures there together on a single document. I'll wager $150-$225K. Not sure anyone would go crazy on the trimmed Mort Rogers scorecards. A clean one is probably $10-$20K based on previous sales. Would these be worth $1-$2K each to someone.....or more? Or less? A very historically significant lot. Does the HOF bid on stuff like that?

The reason all of the photographic pieces are badly trimmed is so the original owner could then fit them into the slots of that CdV album. That is certainly how they were preserved for 140 years. Had the scorecards remained loose and never been trimmed, it is highly likely they would have been thrown out or lost many years ago. CdV albums were the most common way for families to save and display their photos.

I would certainly like the trimmed scorecards, I think the photos are what are important and I would never grade them or care about grades. While I doubt I am the only one who thinks that way, I hope I am.
