Jason - love the Aaron display. A great tribute to a great player.

Also, nice Clemente rookies, guys. That card is on absolute fire right now. An E-bay auction I was watching (purely out of curiosity) of a PSA 8 copy just ended over the weekend north of $25,000. Yikes. I am looking for a low grade one at a reasonable price, but that is becoming an increasingly difficult proposition. I understand that it is an iconic card of a beloved player, but anyone have any thoughts/opinions on why it is currently shooting up like that?
I can recall (not that long ago) that the 55 Clemente and Koufax rookies were basically the same price. No longer the case.

Thanks
My opinion on the price increase in the Clemente is that a new generation of ppl are realizing what an amazing human being Roberto was.
