I can't for the life of me understand why far more plaque collectors weren't willing to shell out for Campy at the time. It's not like they had the option to pay less to have them signed! You see the odd Perez Steele signed by Campy, but where are the plaques? It's confounding. There have always been more plaque collectors than those who are trying to complete the base Perez Steele set, so I'll never comprehend it. There rightly should be at least 250 more signed Campy plaques out there than we've seen. That's just a guess at a number, but as an estimate, it's far from out of line.
The lack of Puckett plaques makes far more sense, in that he was a much younger man and everyone thought he had way more time to sign. Everyone was just waiting for a cheaper option to happen down the line, but fate decided to intervene.
