Is 1/1 myth?

[clydepepper]

What's really bad are the sellers, and there are a lot of them, who claim their item is 1/1 when it's top number of the #/# that is unique. Like serial #14/200 being unigue because there is only one '14' in the limited printing of '200'.

Akin to the HR log cards of Mantle, etc.

By the way, the word 'unique' is a superlative and, therefore, needs no descriptor i.e. 'very unique'. UGH! Lesson Over!

Back in the day when my town had a Baseball card store. There was a guy who collected Emit Smith cards. He had a few pages full of 1/1 cards. The internet and ebay opened up an avenue to collect these sorts of cards. There are many single player collectors who have a few hundred 1/1 cards of their favorite player. Whenever The Emit collector bought in his binder to the shop everybody in the place enjoyed looking at his collection. I have a stack of Gary Sanchez cards only one 1/1 but a stack of 1/10, 1/25 etc. Fun to put away for my grandson.
