If an item is worth what someone is willing to pay for it, then the Mantle photo is worth tens of thousands of dollars. At least 2 people think so, or it wouldn't have been bid up to that. If you or I are not willing to pay that much for it, that's fine, but it doesn't make the photo "worth" any less.
There's value as in "it's worth this much to me," and then there's consensus opinion of value (which seems to be the point of the original poll). In this case, whatever the range on the consensus opinion would be, clearly it's much more than $50. Last edited by thecatspajamas; 05-29-2012 at 08:33 PM. |

If the photo is original and the only known example, I agree it is a significant baseball photo.

I stand corrected Leon. I thought someone had mentioned it was confirmed that at least another example in a private collection.

Leon is correct. Jake is incorrect.
