J LevinePretty sure I know which dealer offered you the cards today...he has had that Anson for a few months and the Clarke nearly as long. I offered him a very small percentage of book for the Anson (n-300) but he decided to pass...the dealer usually has some bargains for me in the pre-war-early 50s and I have known him for nearly 10 years. He is a good guy and he tends to price his stuff not much higher than what he invested in it. The anson and clarke are fairly rare and might command a little premium in my mind...maybe 5-7% of high book. The others I would never pay more than 1-3% for...even the Mantle. But that is just my buying habits...
