I predicted the same when this thread started. After last night's sale I'm sure the buyer is pleased with what he paid for this.

The 144 does seem like a relative bargain as mentioned above. My favorite of the 4 by far. Just such an iconic image, even if a few extra were produced. Maybe the same type of collectors paying big premiums for t206 portraits prefer the red and yellow to the 144 and green Ruths.
