If the T206 set had no stars it wouldn't be collectable at all. It would be like the other hundreds of tobacco card sets of flowers and models and whatnot that were produced that really have little value.

I'm glad you didn't lump 1987 in with your statement Mike, because clearly the rookie cards of Cory Snyder and Oddibe (young again) McDowell are poised to make the leap one of these years...

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
