That Cobb is very nice too btw, definitely an under appreciated card.
Different strokes I guess. I like the post-war just fine and I obviously collect it, but to me pre-war is in a completely different league.

I agree. Like you I have pre-war, post-war, and modern in my collection. I appreciate them all for different reasons. But yea I am surprised some of the pre-war stuff isn't more popular or valuable given the scarcity.

+1 and Pre-war will continue to be the long term blue chip cards to own. Scarcity makes many issues hard to collect, I'd love to see a scarcity scale on every series made. Might be a great thing for the registry too!

A "demand" scale might be more appropriate. Rarity in itself does absolutely nothing to value. If there is only 1 Joe Schmoe, but no one wants a Joe Schmoe, then ole Joe is pretty much worthless except for the heat he would emit at being burned.

The '55 Clemente PSA 8 is now over $90,000 with still over a day to go. Must hit a 100k before it finishes. Those on the sidelines with 8's must be somewhat aroused and those holding 9's intensely aroused. I know I would be. There must be a ceiling, I guess, when the big money gets bored with baseball cards and moves on to antique fire plugs. John
