That was ridiculous. The same seller had a bunch of babe Ruth "type 1" photos that were not even close to type 1s that were bgs slabbed that he was selling. A couple still pop up on ebay(they are usually buy it nows or best offers and have a brown tint/heavy paper stock). and are worth about as much as kindling. There was one 8x10 bain image that was thick stock.. so fake. PRIME example of get what you can get authenticated and sell rather than being concerned if it is good or not.
