Sorry guys but I would like to politely disagree with your assessment. Josh Gibson was one of the greatest players to ever play the game. With so few cards to collect, those of us who love the Negro Leagues and the history it represents have only a few cards to target for our collections. The card comes from a vintage era and it was published outside of mainstream America. It's aging and it's scarce. Compared to some of the prices we've seen over the years, $14 000 is a drop in the bucket. I would buy one in a heartbeat if I had the chance.
