Inquiry on this Framed 1887 N184 Baseball Sheet A42

[bigfanNY]

Like the Goodwin pages I think TPG's will grade authentic. If you are looking for comps then I think that A&G and Goodwin single pages with no hall of famers should be close. And there have been sales recently. Although I might add an a little extra because the display is outstanding. If you come up with a number let me know.

I found that Heritage sold a complete Kimball Album in 2021 for $1015 including the juice. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the input --if any card or album was raw or graded may have impact on the final hammer price.- say a 7 or 8 grade may possibly add a multiplier say 6 or 7 X times is this a reasonable assumption--I do have reservations removing the page from the museum quality frame but would be interesting to submit for grading.

You still haven't answered if any company actually grades these. Why remove it if the service doesn't exist? And no, I don't think you'll see a multiplier like that on these album sheets for high grades. Most "collectors" would rather have a complete album than high grade individual sheets.

John R in the OP it says:

"PSA will grade and authenticate this sheet if desired. -Sheet was framed and matted when I got it , I have not remove it out of the frame-thanks in advance:"

I looked on PSA pop report and it looks like one A&G album page is there with one card/ page graded 1. I think anyone here who collects odd sized cards etc. And tried to have them graded can attest to the fact that any TPG is going to apply the same standard to an album page as a 2020 Topps chrome Autograph. And the end result is generally a much lower number grade than anticipated.
The owner that paid to have the page framed knew that the price they were paying to frame the page would probably never be recouped. But to share such an attractive page with his family and friends was worth the price. Not to mention the joy he got from looking at it in his daily life.

Thanks. I forgot that, I guess. I still don't think that it would drastically increase the price, plus it would be in a very large bulky plastic case. And I don't know of a player registry that it would go in.

I agree that it will not change price drastically. Just a case where rare dose not equal valuable.
