One Major Positive about HI Prices for Late BA's, is that it might bring more of them out of the woodwork for us collectors!

Re: Holy smoke!
Zwebie, I hope you get your price... even though I personally (and my wife) think it's a bit much for a song on a cylinder... but what do we know?Zwebie wrote:Clay & Curt,

Re: Holy smoke!
Bob, I can see that cylinder bringing that kind of money if the right person sees it, although you may need to have some room to negotiate. I'm still hoping to find one at the local antique mall for $5.00. Not expecting to though. Good luck with it.
