It raises the question as to how many there are that noone knows about? The guy who willed it to the nuns had possessed it since the 30s and noone in the collecting community knew he had it until now. As the large population in their 80s starts to age furth and eventually pass on I wonder how many other collecting treasures from the pre War era will hit the market that the collecting community does not know exist at this time.

A doctor (and memorabilia enthusiast) in South Jersey purchased the card. Nice piece on Philly.com.
