Depends on what type of photo it actually is really. A photo on a heavy cardstock backer or a real photo postcard showing railbirding would bring pretty good money. If it's just a snapshot the price would be quite a bit lower. For some reason the brownie camera type snapshot photos just don't go that high.

To me, if I had photos like this of family, nobody would have enough money to buy them.

The little snapshot of my Dad I've got that shows him holding up his first double barrel and first storebought fishing rod is worth more than any Parker I currently own, at least to me that is.
