That I did, and only paid a penny for it.

I'll give you a quarter Ted. Heck of a return on your investment.

Surely this belongs in the post-WWII section, but I guess if you can't beat 'em, join 'em, so here I am. Winning bid will be $6,000,000. That's $7.2M with the premium, and just a bit under $8M once you factor in sales tax and the Heritage shipping charges (not in that order actually).

If it's the best why didn't SGC give it a 10.

Top border is discolored. Back is a little off-center and possibly has a stain near the "Okla."

Yep, and already over with the BP at $5,280,000
In the last 10 or so minutes I've been logged in, it has jumped $150,000.
