I have a 1951 World Series program that has Yankees vs. Dodgers. I am actively looking for an idea of a starting price to ask for with selling this item. The only information I have for this is that my Great Grandfather told my Grandfather that three people each took two of them before they were destroyed and my Grandfather says the other one that my Great Grandfather took is destroyed and that one has been found as just the cover leaving mine one in a possible four. Online searching has given me nothing but an occasional mention such as one person saying it is "the holy grail of baseball memorabilia". It has been taken to appraisers and collectors to try to determine the value and they tell me it is priceless and it depends on what the buyer feels it is worth. The collectors I talked to said they couldn't afford something like that. This is the knowledge I have to work with so far and I would appreciate any new information or help I can get on this thing. Thanks. P.S. It is in mint condition and signed by both Bobby Thomson and Ralph Branca.
