Your oppinion on a 1957 Rarity Eugene Baker
 

I got this card in a group of 1957 Topps that I purchased the other day. Is this the rare version? If it is the rare version I note that it is one of the most expensive cards in the set and I would like to know how difficult of a card it is to collect.

Thanks,

Joe

yup, that is the Bakep variation.
I don't think it's nearly as scarce as it was once made out to be though.

Agree with Anthony. If you do a search on ebay for "1957 Baker variation" you will normally find several examples. Usually the card has to be in top condition or highly graded to get a significant premium. It is a much easier to find then the 58 Herrer print defect

Thanks!
 

Thanks, Al and Anthony for the information.

Best regards,

Joe
