Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>...but there is no way you are going to get people to identify which of 50 cards they own. You would have been better served keeping it to the top 10, especially since that list would not include any Southern Leaguers.<br /><br />Keeping it to Top 10, I have 4-10:<br /><br />4. Plank<br />5. O'Hara (St.Louis) <br />6. Demmitt (St.Louis)<br />7. Magie<br />8. Elberfeld portrait (Washington)<br />9. Lundgren (Chi) <br />10. Smith (Chi & Bos)<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>Up until recently I had 45 of the 50 here, and would not have posted a scan of 45 cards on this thread. That would make for an unbelievably long and unreadable thread if more than a few people with near sets chimed in.<br /><br />I think the scarcities thread would be very interesting. But, "post all your Southern Leaguers," would be a problem, too. Too many scans, not enough useful data to be gleaned from them. <br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>The purpose of the thread was not for everybody to post each of the cards on the top 50 they own. That would be rather stupid. It was just to get a scan of each of the cards on the list by board members. I didn't want to see 15 different Paige's. Usually when we've had these kind of threads people would have enough sense to post two or three they have and then see if someone else could fill in the rest.....if one person posted 48 of the 50 cards...would pretty much take any fun out of the thread. Oh well.

Posted By: <b>Pennsylvania Ted</b><p>I do recall your "gloom and doom" scenario that BB card prices were going to tumble. But, that was<br />10 years ago, and in your defense, how could ever foresee the impact that Ebay was to make.<br /><br />Anyhow, the 1500 figure you noted was for the T205 Hoblitzell (no stats) card I consigned to you.<br /><br />The Magie card, I consigned to you, sold for 2000. Today that card would have probably graded a<br /> "3" or a "40" (depending who graded it). And, on ebay would garner about 20K.

Top 50 T206's...by N54'ers
Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>You remember it better than I do- was a Hoblitzell No Stats really worth that much ten years ago? And I don't recall if your Magie would have been a 2 or a 3...20K seems a bit rich, but who knows.

If I do get it graded, I am interested in the opinions of board members with regard to which grading company to use. Also, what grade do you think it should be? The back is the same as the front......no damage.

Posted By: <b>peter chao</b><p>George,<br /><br />If your looking to sell, then go PSA, looks like solid PSA 3 or PSA 4 o/c. If your keeping the card, there's no reason to get it graded at this time, however I would keep the card in a safe and secure place and try to avoid taking it out too often.<br /><br />Peter

Top 50 T206's...by N54'ers
Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>George,<br />Nice card. For a card like that, either PSA or SGC is fine. I have not noticed any difference in prices realized based on grading company for a card like that. People interested in those sorts of cards look at the card itself. As for the grade, I think either PSA or SGC would give it a vg/ex 4. No qualifiers necessary in my opinion. Centering might be a problem if it were an 8, but not at that level.<br />JimB

Top 50 T206's...by N54'ers
Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>George- it looks like a strong 4/50, with an outside shot at a 5/60 if it has no creases and you get lucky. Beautiful card!<br />SGC is stricter, but I would go with them. They'll probably go with the 50.
