thanks again, men. much appreciated.
how much does the repair mean in value terms? I figured this badge is worth maybe $300-350.Comment

Hmmm, in that condition I don't think so. I think you are lucky to get $100 out of this one.

Tom's right. Unless you snag a rookie by chance, you'd be sitting on it a long time before you'd get +$100 for it. Condition, condition.......Originally posted by Thomas Durante View Post
Actually, a mint zinc Wurster GAB would have a tough time realizing $300.00!
A RARER brass base Wurster GAB in fine condition would probably realize $300-$350Comment

Personally, I wouldn't pay $150 for a mint brass base Wurster GAB because the badge design doesn't appeal to me, but to somebody who wants all the variations (or collects early), who knows....Originally posted by Bruce Simcox View Post......Maybe for a dealer at retail.
