Might be fun for the experience, so I guess there’s value in that I have a lifelong friend that would know the ballpark that the poster would be in but because it’s signed it’s a one off, or one of a very few. That will push it into uncharted territory You’re Ahab looking for a whale. The poster is one of a kind but the people that appreciate the significance of it are aging You also might look into donating it to a museum. Depending on your financial situation it might be worth more as a tax write off Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Something else to take into account, I suppose is this: Do you have any kind of Certificate of Authenticity in regards to her autograph? Just taking your word (I trust you completely, mind you) that she’s the model for it doesn’t mean it’s worth any more than the poster itself. |

That's only 1 of many links Steve, If you google Bernice Smith Tongate you'll get a bunch of links. She was very well known for her having posed and then actually getting the Navy to change it's policies towards women. |
