Well to REA’s point, that Jackson card in a 1 grade most recently did $1,250. That Ruth card in a 1 grade most recently did $2,500. Compare that to the Gibson card which is rapidly approaching $100K in a 1 grade. Nowhere near being even remotely close to it. Yes, all 3 are post playing days cards with the primary difference being that Gibson had only one other individual card issued previously while Ruth and Jackson had numerous.
BTW I owned one of these back in 2008 in a 1.5 grade due to a small, stray pen-written line on the blank back. Paid $20K for it and auctioned it 2 1/2 years later for $13.5K, a whopping $6.5K loss. Now, 13 years later, someone else benefits from a 7X increase in value while I sit back and chalk up another loss on another 6-figure card in today’s world of crazy prices. |
