The modern market is robust. Just look at auction houses like REA, Lelands and Heritage. They have several listings of modern "crap" that is highly sought after and has a large following. Plus if it's in REA, you know it probably a highly sought after issue.
Just don't understand the snobbery against modern cards. It is possible to like both. they are not mutually exclusive.
Personally, I feel more of a connection to a Jordan rookie that I had as a kid as opposed to a t205 of a player I never saw.
that's why the hobby is so great. there's something for everyone. |
Well said, and I'd also add, due to the desire in collecting modern cards, we should all be happy as that is also helping in keeping the bobby strong for everyone.
