leonTo paraphrase you said:
"2. Sorry Leon, Back types - I really think the market for these will be very thin going forward, especially if the average collector becomes less of an intense hobbyist and more a casual enjoyer of the hobby. I mean, you have to be a pretty intense collector for a back designation of "Herpolsheimer" to decide if you like a card or not..."
Wow.....you really haven't been watching ebay lately have you? If it's any indicator of the market for the "back" collecting, it's going through the roof...maybe more so than other areas ....Email me privately if you need some specific examples, currently. I am glad I overpaid several years ago for the ones I have today....BTW, the last 2 Red backed crofts have gone for over $3500 each...and were commons...regular black backed ones are in the $200-$300 range...I am not speaking of those as to current ebay stuff though.......best regards...
