Make a offer for some or all. We will then go on to the next stage.

Remember. I am not picky.

You aren't just left with this are you? You also have some funds from previous sales correct?

I am following this with interest as I got three really nice cards for my T206 pursuit and am wishing Stephen all the best in his pursuit. I had a question for those in the know as I know nothing about photographs, but that Wagner piece is pretty cool. Does anyone have an opinion on what that might be worth on the open market? I am not interested in acquiring, just wondering what something like that would go for to a collector of such things. I guess it might be hard to tell from just a scan, but for my own edification, throwing the question out there.

2 years ago that exact copy sold for $42.08 in an RMY auction. It was also advertised as a WIRE.

Awesome! Now I know exactly what I have.

Good thing the photo market boomed since then

I'm not sure it would be that high. Maybe to the right collector though. I'd say $75-$200 would be a good estimate. Photos have also completely exploded in the last year (especially Ruth, Gehrig, and Joe Jackson). Photos that used to go for $50 a couple of years ago now easily go into the hundreds if not thousands.
