26-year-old collector buys 1952 Hank Aaron Indy Clowns postcard for $275,000

There's always talk about how vintage will die when everyone after Gen X rules the hobby and no one cares about old-time players.

This guy's guest shoots that theory down — he just sold everything in his collection except a Toleteros Josh Gibson to buy one of two known examples of the '52 Aaron Clowns PC for $275K!

Discussion about the item specifically starts at 13:33, but it's all worth a watch.

There will ALWAYS be people who love and value the history.
