In the last couple months, I have also seen several of Clark's 1965 Perfetti candy cards show up; they are pretty tough. I don't really think I am "outing" the following auction to a whole lot of people by mentioning it here, but I am kind of surprised by this 1951 Alberto Ascari card currently at nearly $300 on eBay. I was not even previously familiar with this card, but he does have some earlier cards that sell for less money. https://www.ebay.com/itm/403950616638

Verstappen
Seen these Max Verstappen German Top Trumps dated as 2016 by SGC. I appreciate that SGC is grading these non-English issues, but wish they put a little more research into the dating.
The pose and the text (in German) is the same as the 2016 English Top Trumps that is accepted as his Rookie card, but the overall design, and the stats on the front are different. Stats match what they would be after the 2016 season ended at the end of November 2016...so unless they pumped this set out immediately in December of 2016, this is a 2017 set...and not a Verstappen Rookie year card. I still like the card, it's likely scarcer then the English language one, and the last one I saw went for what seemed like a bargain to me on Ebay, even as a 2nd year card...though one a few weeks earlier went for considerably more...so maybe collectors are wise to this issue already. |

Also seems like Verstappen's first Top Trumps card is outselling Hamilton's...by like...a lot.
Maybe it's a supply issue, but there's definitely a recency bias going on...I guess, just like baseball/basketball/football prospects and younger stars. He looks absolutely dominant, but he still has only half as many titles as Vettel. |

The other thing is, Hamilton does have some other early options for cards that have talked about before in this thread.

Finally found a Jackie Stewart. Not a great card due to the pose, but if you have to have the rookie.

Some unopened packs I've restrained myself from opening up (so far).
#1. 1980 Panini "F1 -Grand Prix" packs. Not as glamourous as the mid-80's sets (ie. no Senna), but still very neat. #2. 1984 Galp Energy "Formula 1 - Grand Prix" packs. Portuguese issue similar to Panini's Notable in that this contains a very early Ayrton Senna card on the Toleman team. I believe the earliest card of him in a released set that just features him and not his car or part of a perforated panel with another driver. Example (not mine): |
