Default Value of a Jack Bookbinder painting

I was recently given a piece of art by Jack Bookbinder. It appears to be done in pencil. The name of the piece is "Big Brother - Yucatan". Also, before the name "big brother" it says Ed 50 and after his signature which is written in pencil is the year 1961. Does anyone have any information on this sweet picture?

I suppose this is a litho made by Jack Bookbinder in 1961. I think it is not ED on your print but EA. EA is French for Exemplar Artiste or Epreuve D'artiste. The EA’s refer to the printmaking tradition of using the first printed works as proofs for the rest of the edition.
The measurements of the one I saw on the internet was 13" x 9 1/2" and this EA was printed 25 times. It was estimated $100-250. Starting bid was $50.
