This is an advertisement from an 1872 newspaper.

Digger Odell has it on his "sample" list:

2002 edition of Kovels has a value on it of 10 dollars. I have not seen one like yours though and it might be more scarce, I'm not sure, I have a sample about the same size but it has 6 panels and I think that mine is the more common one. Hopefully someone else can comment on that.
