This is an open forum and you understand that I would like to pick that up for as little as possible and therefore don't want to invite competition. Hinted at in my first post was that it's not in great condition, but it's not necessary for helpers to factor that in. More of a survey of experts as to where they feel the market stands at this point. What would [B]you[/B] bid in a similar situation? As for the piece, there may be a few hundred out there, or possibly 25 or less in circulation. To stir up more attention, I will say that there are [U]two reasons[/U] this is rare. And no question it is pre-1900. [COLOR=#ff0000]Komo, what's rarer than rare, scarcer than scarce? But obviously not one of a kind? :wacky: :p [/COLOR] The person who bought mine on eBay became a major buyer of large parts of my collection.
