Here would be probably the best piece I ever pulled out of a western show…Four or five years ago I went to the Grass Valley Old West Show…A well-known advertising dealer who I knew a little was set up. He goes to me…I got a Cal Stanford football poster I’d like your opinion on…So he shows me a photo of this poster and asks what do you think it’s worth…And I’m like…dang it…there was no way out…I had to tell him…there would be no sneaking up on it…I told him point blank…it may be the best football poster I’ve ever seen and it’s probably worth $3,000.00 to $5,000.00…and I asked him if he wanted to sell it…said he was going to keep it for now…So….a year goes by and he calls me and offers it to me for $XXXX.XX…said he’d be at the upcoming Grass Valley show in a couple weeks…. I gulped, took a breath, and said I’d take it…I wasn’t taking any chances…he offered…I accepted…no negotiating…
