Small but notable stash of 1916 Ferguson Bakery pennants uncovered

That was fast.

In the article there was a tab you could use to go to his eBay page to see what he had listed for sale. I went there and saw the Alexander premium as just having been listed. The Buy It Now price was $4,500 or best offer. That was a couple of hours ago.

I just went back to that page and the Alexander has been sold.

Too bad I didn't have the cash.....

Edited to add: this one might be Mr. Luckey's.

Market value on these is tricky since they are so scarce. I'm not sure where this article got their information, but they said as few as five of the Alexander have survived. I would love to see that evidence because I have only seen one on the market in the past 10 years or so. The Alexander that Leon now owns sold for $4813 in 2005, then resold shortly thereafter for $6275, then sold for $3585 this past summer. My thinking is the dealer was in the right ballpark.
