Just a w.a.g. from a novice but prolly get 10-20k just on -bay, maybe more at the right auction? I could see someone like Jay Leno easily wanting it enough to give that for it.

Very nice machine. It's a piece of art. Hard to believe that this is over 100 years old.
 
So I was just looking around to try and find some info out about one of these New Mail light roadster bicycles I just picked out of a garage here in Indiana and wow what a surprise. We do estate auctions and we just find one of these bad boys in the garage of an estate we are going to be selling. Had no idea they were this rare. Curious as to how many are known of now in 2019. We have not unloaded it yet but as soon as we do I will post some pictures of it. Any other info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance to any who reply.
