Insane price for Coveleski
Posted By: Paul
I know Coveleski doesn't have very many cards, and his cards have become popular lately, but this is beyond ridiculous. |

Insane price for Coveleski

This is exactly what I was talking about in an earlier thread about 1920's Carmel card prices lately. The prices they have ended up going for are out of this world. Grover Alexander for $330, Sisler for $300+. And now Coveleski for $450? The cards are going for over 4 Times they would have gone for just a few years ago. Granted I always felt the 20's caramel cards where under priced but what’s going on? |

It looks like Hal thought it was his RC.... THe Exhibit is the same year, the Minor League cards don't count (Zeenuts) and the strip cards kind of suck (can I say that ??) Also, these cards don't pop up much. |

At one time the E121-120 Coveleski like the E121-120 Ross Youngs were the earliest cards that could be graded by PSA, so they brought higher prices in mid to high grade from top Rookie collectors. Now days strip cards are being graded so the prices should have dropped on the Coveleski at least. But I guess not. The nicer Coveleski and Youngs have gone for 2-4X book for a few years now, but this is a bit high on this one. Frank |

He's a nice guy who collects rookie HOF cards and other rookie cards as well. |

I scanned (what is cataloged as) a 1928 W502 of Coveleskie and put it along side the picture of the 1921 E121 card of Coveleskie. The W502 is actually about 75% the length of the E121 and about the same width wise. |

Printers have been able to add/change/delete team names on uniforms for a long time. It was done much earlier than the 1920's. The Mayo's are a great example. Both Ewing cards are the same pose, with a different team name on the shirt. I just realized that the Kid Nichols photo was actually taken while he was still on the minor league Omaha team. Boston was later added to his uniform. |

Isn't this the same Covaleski from the 1910 E93 Standard Caramel set? |

They are different covaleskis. Stan Covaleski had his first full season in 1916 with Cleveland (he is pictured in the e121 and played until 1928). Harry Covaleski played from 1907-18. |
