If the "museum people" will give you a $1000 for it, take it and run the other direction just as fast you can. If they won't do that, then take it back home and put it with the rest of your railroad paper goods memorabilia.

Have it appraised by a knowledgeable person that specializes
in things like that. I pretty much agree with csxengineer98 about
what it is worth. Don't hold your breath,unless you look good in blue.

I think someone was pulling your leg. Suggest you keep it with your other buff stuff our use it to pay the bills.
