Hello guys,

My first post here. I love vintage baseball cards.

I am interested in acquiring a few more graded N28 Allen & Ginter cards and maybe a graded T206 card. However, funds are really tight.

I have a high-priced wristwatch that I don't use. I am thinking of selling it and using the funds to buy the cards. Have you guys ever done anything like this or would you?

Here's my line of thinking: Watches require expensive servicing about every 5 years. Vintage graded cards do not. Plus, I have two other very nice watches.

How is the market for vintage cards at the moment? Will cards from the 19th century maintain their value in the future? Are N28 Allen & Ginter Baseball cards, particularly the HOFers, considered rare?

Ultimately, it's my decision. Just looking for opinions and info.

Thanks in advance!
