Default '33 Benny Bengough vs. '52 Andy Pafko
Posted By: Kenneth A. Cohen

I would question the supposition that the quality of the player is not a key factor in the worth of the cards being discussed. Yes, these cards are extremely high worth in spite of the less than hall of fame careers of the players. But wouldn't their worth be substantially greater if - for example - the Goudey #1 was one of the Ruths or Gehrigs, or if '52 Topps #1 was Mays? Wouldn't there be a compounding effect of several price multiples given the combination of interest in the set, card #1, AND star quality of the player?
