What is the one card

pokerplyr80 · #1 11-29-2015, 03:06 PM

I'm hoping the 1925 Exhibit Gehrig RC is that card. I think it has as good a chance as any right now. For a modern card I like the orange border Cal Ripken minor league pre-rookie.

Either one of the Gehrig RC's, the Exhibit or w590 to the Goudeys . we saw the outragous price on that nice 2 in auction, was like 12k
As for the Orange Cal, its already considered the modern whale, love the much scarcer version indeed

But theres other forms, like the Frank Thomas NNO that fetch good $ on pwcc near 2k (psa8) and a Bgs 8.5 for 2075 sold

Tiger Woods Rookie, that baby is gonna skyrocket when he makes his big comeback. I smell a string of 8 majors in a row coming.

Count me with those who believe the Gehrig rookie 1925 exhibit card will be the next hobby "it" card. Very low pop but enough to start circulating after that Heritage sale. Additionally he's always been the name on people's tongues right after The Babe. Player stats boggle the mind and he also has the cultural icon status. Perfect storm.

From the looks of the last few sales that boat might have left the dock (on getting one for less than an arm and a leg). Great card though and an early raw card I bought as NM-MT and came back EX+ then I think eventually ended up in some TPG's 6 holder. Good ole Hal bought mine back in the day.

...(only) 'A FEW THOUSAND DOLLARS'?

That's so 2014

But, I guess if you push, I'll say a 'Black Swamp' card.

There's a hammered one that's been up on ebay forever that you could probably get for a little under 4k. That might seem like a bargain in a few years. But yea that 6 would be a nice one to have right now. If a 2 went for 12k that could be a 30-50k card in the right auction.

Might be too late on the '25 Exhibit Gehrig--one in SGC VG popped up on one of my ebay saved searches, and the BIN was $25K.

Happy Collecting,

I saw that one as well...i was hoping he mis-listed it and put 2500 instead of 25k.
707 still has his, but will only come off 100 for the B/Offer. But with those projected prices, its a steal for the future to decide.

I think an Ex would have to get to $100K+ for Levi's to be worth what he's asking, which is perhaps a slight exaggeration, but only slight. On the other hand, if transparent restoration becomes acceptable and his example is restorable (which I personally doubt, with all the material on the front that is missing), it might be worth the gamble. It is definitely a key card, with probably less than 100 total out there.

Good post--keeping thinking with regard to being on the cutting, rather than the trailing, edge of the market (the former will be a lot cheaper if your bets are placed right)!

I would say any player on the 1919 Whitesox cards will start going up in value that the 100 year mark is just around the corner.

Of course some of these would have to grade pretty high now but I really think you could double or triple your money if you buy now and sell later.

Although I have been wrong before.

Personally I am still a firm believer in the Negro League HOFers. Virtually all players pre-1930 have less than 25 examples of all of their cards and many can be had for "merely" a few thousand dollars.

about 8 yrs ago I was runner up on a beautiful '52 Mick in a 4-5 holder.....wish I had that to do over again
