This is the one I purchased. I like them to a point, I wanted something a little different and looks vintage. Some I'm not impressed. I have no plans to collect more than a 3-4 tops, maybe a wagner, matty young etc...but as a modern card I won't pay very much, I think I paid $40 for this one, adds a little to my collection.
Pre-WWII does deceive a little and when the dealer throws in the past "sold" price, it bothered me a tiny bit. But I got my card. I do think they should list it in a modern era. Last edited by lug-nut; 11-04-2013 at 11:30 PM. |

I'm kind of surprised at how well these cards are received. I would much rather have a 1975 Topps Jose Cruz in PSA 2 MC or a Paul Pierce 2nd year refractor in SGC 82. I'd rather that ebay list them with other modern cards.

I thought these things were going to be trashed on the board, but am pleasantly surprised at how many folks like them.
I voted that I like them. I think a lot of them look really nice and would be a great compliment to a prewar collection, especially displayed on a shelf alongside authentic prewar cards. The prices keep me from buying any of them. Like others have said, I would rather spend the money on an actual vintage card. If I could pick up a nice Matty or Cobb Boston Garter Helmar for $10.00 I might do it, but the bigger stars always seem to go much higher.
