Problem with John Ward Four Base Hits

Posted By: Hal Lewis

The restored "Just So" card of Burkett that was in the recent Mastro auction sold for $9,000.

If it had been unrestored and just a "beater" that was slabbed as an SGC 10... my guess is that it would have sold for 10 times the amount.

(NOTE: I am not criticizing the owner of the card for having it restored because he had no choice. The card was butchered and unslabbable BEFORE he ever got it.)

Apparently the "market price" for these restored items is about 10% of the true value?
