Default What is the highest price paid for a baseball postcard?

Since we seem to be having this convo in more than one thread why not concentrate the discussion here...maybe we can come up with a top ten list of highest prices paid.

A few to start from links in the other two threads.

Leland Giants - $22,137.50
http://www.hakes.com/item.asp?AuctionItemID=57787

Rose Co Ty Cobb - $23,900
http://www.legendaryauctions.com/Lot...ntoryid=123781

Greenville Joe Jackson - $17,569
https://catalog.scpauctions.com/LotD...entoryid=10864

1915 Boston Red Sox Team w/Ruth - $26,662.50

http://robertedwardauctions.com/auction/2006/4.html This one, like the Jackson would bring much more today, I suspect.

I'm guessing even without the autograph on there this one would sell for $20,000+, but it's hard to throw that one on this list simply because of the auto.

Seems like this thread might need to be up-dated in 2015. Correct me if I am wrong...
