Default 1888 Boston cabinet on ebay

Posted By: Jay

The Chicago Jos Hall went for over $20K because it is only the second copy known and the best of the two. It also has the irony of Anson with his hand on the black mascot Clarence Duval. Washington is also very rare. Boston compares to Louisville which is desireable but not the ultimate in Jos Halls. The doctored faces/bodies also, in my opinion, makes it somewhat less desireable. I would guess that if it were sound it would be worth $10K.
