Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>It can be a condition sensitive scarcity or a regular scarcity. I have a small advantage as I like obscure stuff....Here is a 1 of 1...with the Sanders advertising on bottom....<br /><br /><img src="http://luckeycards.com/ph812welch.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Chris Counts</b><p>Here is a 1940 Play Ball colorized proof. I have currently have four of them, but this is the only one I've managed to get graded. SGC supposedly graded just a few of them before a somebody with clout in the hobby started raising hell about them (that's the story I got from both GAI and SGC). I'm convinced they're real, and graders from both companies agreed with me, off the record ...<br /><br /><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e278/ccmcnutt/demaree.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Eric Brehm</b><p>This 1933 Goudey card of Glenn Myatt is not scarce in general, but it is rather hard to find in top condition, partly because it is from the 'low number' series where inferior card stock was used:<br /><br /><img src="http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r143/ebrehm1/33G010_Glenn_Myatt.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Paul S</b><p>Nice question! I don't have any pop reports, but pre-war I'll take a shot with my t206 Duffy Red Hindu.<br />Post-war I'll guess again with, oddly enough, a '49 Bowman Schoendienst with a slate/gray background printing error. They don't come up all that often on the secondary market (so says Beckett, anyway.)<br /><br /><img src="http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z26/pspec/T206_Duffy_f-b_Hindu_Red.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z26/pspec/Bowman_49_Schoendienst_slate.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Jim Clarke</b><p>Looking at all the photos my first question is define a baseball card? Anything with a player on it made out of paper? I've seen a Game Card/19th century advertising piece/postcard/CDV/Cabinet/Silk/Supplement/Die cut/and football player. So I guess I really do not know what to post???

Posted By: <b>Joseph</b><p>I discovered this forum after this card found me, literally falling out of a hole my ceiling onto my head. It's a Universal Toy & Novelty Co. strip card circa 1929. I know it's pathetic, but I love it. And it is very rare, indeed.<br /><br /><img src="http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z36/1969mets_2007/jimelliotcard.jpg">

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>It's all about having fun with what you collect. A card can really be anything you deem it to be. We all know there is no set definition of "card"....so go with whatever you want to call a card that is in your collection. It's all good.... regards

Posted By: <b>Paul S</b><p>...and Paige's smile is an absolute joy -- priceless!<br /><br />Also, any idea of the multiplier on the Bowmans?<br />It's funny, I never gave much thought to my scarcest (LEON, great topic) -- as opposed to most expensive (by today's value), but having to think about it I was surprised that maybe the Bowman errors really ARE my scarcest. Imagine that, with it all.

Posted By: <b>Anonymous</b><p>Leon has three E92's listed with wrong backs, one of which is the same as yours, a menagerie. But no Mcgraw, so your in luck still 1 of 1 as far as i know... <br />Leon I noticed the SGC slabs say your Young and Magee were e101 and e102, looks like all they did was guess. Im almost positive there E92's too since these actually do show up with wrong backs. Have you talked to them about having these slabbed correctly?

Posted By: <b>Rob Dewolf</b><p>I'm curious as to what you -- or anyone else on the board -- would expect that to bring at auction. The premiums are so rarely offered, I really don't have a base price from which to work. (Plus, I can start saving now if I have a ballpark figure.)
