Unusual Veggie Person Anthropomorphic Die Cut Beistle?

Beistle issued this “male” version of its Hallowe’en Elf design between 1923 and 1932. The difference between the male and female is the male design is larger and has an additional layer of foliage directly beneath the abdomen. (See page 125 for both designs plus the elusive but ever-so-desirable envelope.) A prominent collector asked my opinion of how much this should go for given its rough condition. I estimated it would bring between $250-275, so the buyer paid a substantial premium.
