Topps Venezuelans

[toppcat]

I just completed a type run of the Vennie's with a 59 cream Impreza back I just picked up. Very interesting issues for the decade they were issued.

Can someone enlighten me as to why the 1977 Venezuela Nolan Ryan carries a price premium over all others in the same set? It doesn't seem to be any more scarce, even by PSA counts (even though I know it is likely submitted more frequently than lesser players).

Just thought I would get input from the experts around here.

I have 10 Braves cards from the 64 Venz set I'm looking to trade or sell. If anyone wants details, either pm me here or email: dbesse27@hotmail.com

Probably the same reason the 1968 Venezuelan Ryan/Koosman goes for way more than any other 1968 Venezuelan card, there is a huge demand for it. The 1968 Venezuelan Clemente is a far distant second.
