That's exciting. And bold for the current owner. But I suspect they'll do just fine, as long as nothing economically stupefying occurs a day or two before the auction close to scare off a few would-be bidders.

In light of this new information, I'll revise my earlier estimate, and guess $8.5M for this rare piece of cardboard history. And afterwards, we can debate who picked it up, and whether the house or its employees bid during the process, as I'm pretty sure I remember that HA reserves this right.
