Rare (Valuable?) cartridge display board ?

[Trooperdan]

I've been a reloader for years, well decades really, in the '60's, bullet makers issued display boards that had one of each of their bullets for reloading mounted on a display board for the reloaders visual reference. They were reasonably priced, even if it did seem not to be so at the time but they required a huge amount of hand labor to produce and they soon were too expensive so sell.
I still have a few from Sierra, Speer, Hornady, etc from those days and am getting too old to keep a lot of toys I don't have room to display so I'm looking for the best venue and process to put them up for sale. Digging in the shed today I found one I'd forgotten, a 100 year anniversary cartridge board from Norma. It is a large 23"X31" board that only had 250 released in 2002. I have no idea of the value, it could be worth a few bucks or it could be a white elephant. I'll try to attach a poor cell phone pic. Has anyone ever seen one of these? Any opinion on value and a recommendation for an auction house that might be interested in listing it?

I handled an estate for a friend that owned the LGS. He had several old displays ranging from Remington .22 ammo stuff from the '60s on up. I used an online auction service as I didn't think we would get so much interest in such things at the local level. I think I was correct as things sold super high. There are collectors out there for anything, just have to find them.

You are most welcome. I used them back in 2009 when I lost my job and had to sell a lot of guns and ammunition to keep my head above water. They probably got a good laugh when I drove in with the body of my car practically sitting on the axles.
