    I have a beautiful wrapper that I bought 15 years ago with a bunch of other stuff. I knew that it was tough, but I really had no idea at the time. I deal in sports cards, but I have a passion for non sports from the 50s and early 60s. [Not a surprise since I will turn the big 60 in a couple of months] Can anyone give me an idea what it might be worth? I have a customer who knows that I have it and that I'm thinking of selling it. any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Greg

    Good day,
    Arguably one of the Rarest Non Sport Wrappers in all of Non Sports. The few that have sold on E-bay over the last 7-8 years have run the gamit depending on condition from a crumpled up Poor condition for, if I remember correctly over $400. Really nice examples I have seen go for Over $1500.00. I sold my example about 7 years ago to a collector to add to the Set that the Artists Son was selling for $1200.00 which was about an EX example.

    Thanks guys for the insight. I'll get in contact with Mickey as well. I'll still try and get a scan up as I believe that it is real pretty!

    Good evening,
    Count me in as wanting to see a scan, and not interested in doing any Bidding on these boards. Not what this is about, when I share info it is not as a Dealer, but simply as a collector. And I do not want to see some collector , we''ll call collector "A", Post this: SEE HOW MUCH I CAN GET A FEW EXTRA BUCKS FOR MY CARD. Seriously, I make enough deals and don't need to have this turn into that. Can we just see a scan????
    Thanks

    ok. I think that I have it this time. Because of the black background, the upper right corner looks like it's missing. It's black also.

    Good Day,
    Super condition, I would venture a guess that you should see at least 2K for that one. Awesome. Put it on the Bay with a 2K Reserve and see what happens.

    Thanks for the help and input guys! I still haven't decided if I'm going to sell it. I may never have the opportunity to have another and it's just so cool!

    You could basically name your price on that wrapper.

    I have seen 2 in my life.

    That one is the nicest by far.


    If I was to guess I'd say 3k for it.


    Steve


    edited to add Marty Quinn (mighty-Q) also has one and it is as nice as Gregs.


    Good for you.

    Steve,
    It turns out that your estimate was right on the $$. It appears as though the wrapper is a run proof. They cut it off the roll to check color, reigstration etc. It was never on a pack and therefore had no creases. I'm sorry it's gone as I know that I will probably never even come close to replacing it, but the $$ paid a lot of bills! Thanks to all for your input.

    Great! I missed out on one a few years back, the seller had too many red flags.

    The buyer ended up leaving positive feedback though. I bid 500.00 it sold for 505.00

    Good for you.

    Not sure what you mean? The wrapper I was talking about was not the one
    in this thread but another 4 years ago.
