    Too bad the seller is totally off his rocker when it comes to his asking price....

    Ya, no kidding on the price!!! Even if I had the $$$ I doubt I'd still pay that much!

    Mark-

    Actually Dags are in a class unto themselves apart from ambrotypes, salt prints, CDVs, etc. They do fetch some unreal prices (to you and me, to others chump change). I think a recent auction of an outdoor dag of San Fran ca. 1850 went for $40,000.

    Dags are more accepted as an art form and are highly prized by the art world, hence the high prices. You might as well get used to it.

    Respect the dead; but you -- you draw
    That ancient blade, the ass's jaw,
    And shake it o'er a hero's grave.
