This definitely got my attention as well. I've been on the fence or outbid
before for this poster, but have always figured that I'd pick one up
eventually. That hammer price yesterday took my breath away, though.
Hopefully it was just an aberration, because at that price, I likely won't ever
own it. And if I did lose my mind and lay down 50K for it, my wife would
probably find a Gun for Hire to rub me out!
