To preserve this in archival condition will cost quite a bit more than $150 even with a simple frame. The real problem is the drawing itself which is most likely on a cheap wood pulp drawing paper which eats itself no matter what you mount it on.

I'm not convinced it's actually a drawing and not an etching. If is really is a drawing and it was actually in good shape on not ripped out from the original piece of paper, I'd place a high bid in the $300-$350 range, as it is over $100 is too high in my opinion. If it came with the magazine the print was used in add another $50 to $100.

I'd be interested in knowing what the artists on the list think, Chuck?
