Think again Jeffrey Downer.

He will certainly recoup his cost, if not almost double it. 5 boxes go for a little over $1k and the cash auto alone is around that.

Quit trying to rain on everyone's parade. We get it already. In your world, you're better than everyone.

Thanks guys. Has anyone seen what Johnny Cash autos usually go for? I am keeping it in the PC but am just curious. Thanks

I actually did a broader look on ebay and saw a Johnny Cash cut auto numbered to 9 went for a $1,000. I was not expecting to see that. Anyway, thanks again for the nice comments.

I think you can easily get that for your copy!

This one from UD Prominent Cuts is awful looking, and yours is way nicer. List it the right way and you will certainly see around the same price, if not more.

Awesome Pull!!!

I take back my earlier statement. Congratulations on doing well on a horrific product.

Hey I gotta tell you guys that Prominent Cuts Cash/9 was pulled by a friend of mine at a show he was set up at(I didn't go to the show) and he sold it for $150 for some damn reason! The buyer put it on ebay that night and got the $1000...

Looked a little disappointing to me as well at first, I guess the Wagner and Cash are more than I thought they would be though.Color me picky, but they could have cleaned up the Cash so the pair of postmarks weren't showing on the cut.Seems easy to me to cut around that and it would look a lot cleaner.And while they are nice, I'm guessing they're a next to impossible pull.The sticker autographs really sting here--it's a shame, the design is really nice.

The post marks date the signature.. Which in my mind adds value..

Fair enough, but they look distracting to me (I don't mean to single this one out, there are many other cuts out there that look worse than this one--the HOF plaque cards that are cut are really brutal).

I liked them as well. The post marks are from 1976.

Meanwhile, I LOVE the postmarks on the cut
