but exactly how old is the practice of laminating? I doubt they had plastic covered ID cards in the '30s.....and that just kills for me what would otherwise be a pretty cool looking trinket...not worth $30+...maybe $2-3 ....MAYBE...

: Hi,
: Found this "prop replica" auction. The strangest thing about it is that it is selling for $31 already. I don't know why someone would have a private auction for something like this, except to drive up the bid themselves, and hope for a real customer to bid even higher. I've seen stranger things!
: What do you think?
