I once owned Lionel Carter's T206 Eddie Plank. Sold it about a year ago when I got an offer I couldn't refuse. The Plank was originally purchased with funds from a sale of about 400 T206 cards that I amassed over a 10 year period. So pure card money. Most of the Plank cash sponsored the addition of a half bath and other home improvements. I have never missed Eddie.
I consider just about everything other than my signed T206 collection as a slightly less liquid than cash form of savings. I dip into it whenever appropriate. As somone said already, all of my Sgc 60 T206s are right there on ebay, so not hard to get them back.
