I have an old postcard c 1908 of Hatteras Light.



This is the reverse - my grandfather sent it to my grandmother



Someone saw the image of the postcard and asked me if I owned it (which I do) and said he would pay $50.00 (or more) for it. Is that a fair price?

He said that the price that he noted for the lens was correct. He then asked how my grandfather got to climb the lighthouse - was he someone special? I don't know that he was. I think he was salesman. Does anyone know who would be allowed to climb in 1908?

I'm not altogether sure that I want to part with the card, but if I do sell it, I don't want to charge an unreasonable price. OTOH I don't want to sell it well under the current price.
