Whats this piece of 3rd gen history worth?

Hey guys, I have had this dealer showroom wall unit display for at least 6 years. I bought it when I had my 88 GTA Notchback, some of you might remember me from long ago when my screen name was GTAkid. Anyways other projects like my 69 Camaro SS and no good place to put this thing around the house have brought me to wanting to part ways with this. I come here to ask what you guys think something like this is worth? I was told by Frankie Rider of the GTA source page that the pic is from the '90 model year so I would assume that this is a '90 showroom display. The cool thing about this piece is that the insert picture is rare enough but for this one to have the actual wall frame (2.4x2ft in size 4-5 inches deep), from my experience makes it a damn near impossible find. I have never seen anything like it on eBay in the years I have been watching. Closest thing I saw was just the insert picture card for a '00 TA and that went for $90. I now work at a Pontiac dealer and have been selling the flat much smaller and not as detailed, GTO wall picture displays anywhere from $50-100, and thats 04-05 model year. Just looking for a little insight from the 3rd gen gods as to your guys opinions. thanks!

That's pretty cool to have something like that.... I have collected "nearly" everything for my '91 Z28, but haven't seen anything like that. I'm not sure what it would be worth. If it was for a '91 Z28, and I knew that there weren't may out there, I would pay a couple of hundred dollars for it..... good find

Ive seen a handful of them for sale at swap meets. Ive never seen one for a thirdgen bird though. They usually have ranged from $20-$75. None were as nice as yours though.

Very nice!
I have a ton of the Firebird/Trans Am dealer small posters like that one, from the seconds to the fourth.
But, I don't have any of the frames that that one is in.
If you ever want to sell, or see another one for sale, please let me know. I don't really need the poster inside, but I always do buy spares!
