What price a piece of Wall Street? More than recent estimates, apparently, but less than its former owner, who was once a Merrill Lynch trader, tried to sell it for on eBay last year...

We told you yesterday http://bit.ly/btUhC5 that Auction house Christie's was giving you the opportunity to bid on "a quintessential piece of New York history" - a late 19th century/ early 20th century street sign from the intersection between Wall Street and Broad Street.
