Yes, I understand about the Bartirome being valuable, and I wasn't insulting. I just think it's funny that in 2024, of all the incredible stars in that set, that card is so valuable. I thought you were being serious/humorous at the same time.
LOVE the Campy btw. good luck! Quote:

A VG 3 sells for around $1500 based on VCP prices. Yours is in that grade range of 2-3 IMO.

Even though I have stated I do not want to break up the collection, I have been getting a LOT of attention for the Mays.
I would part with the Mays in a trade for a 1951 Bowman Mantle. That is the last card I need for that set. For those who want jump on my regarding values, that is relative. It is what I need vs. what you need. As long as both parties are happy with a trade that is all that counts. I have also been getting a lot of mesages regarding my "ballpark" figure. I was thinking 60K. I have seen complete raw 1952 Topps sets in vg go fo 3 figures. |

Your best bet would likely be to consign the ‘52 set to a major auction house and use part of the proceeds to buy a Mantle for the ‘51 Bowman set. The auction house will get the better cards graded at a reasonable price and would sell those cards individually and would lot up the rest in probably a low number raw lot and a high number raw lot. You can probably get a zero consignment rate. You will get whatever the best value is for the set by doing that. I doubt $60K is possible but if you cannot complete the ‘52 Topps set which would cost probably $60K more to complete in VG you could capitalize on the partial set and complete the Bowman set with a lot of spare cash.

My completely graded had 1-80 with all blacks/reds/house and campos 3 variations 75% graded psa 3 recently did 50k only missing mathews and mantle. All highs were graded and averaged a dead centered 3 all the way around.
I'd doubt you'd get 15k maybe 20k in auction with highs graded Low series with mays 7k Hi series 100 commons about 10k they would do maybe $75-100 each, more for bartirome but won't give the needle Missing all the big cards. Again, you don't want to sell, but anywhere close to 30k, I'd sell in a heartbeat. Ungraded with no mantle is going to kill it. People.are overpaying for sets JUST to get the Mantle.
