Compare this card purchased on ebay a few months ago:

...with the same card sold at auction a few weeks ago:

Talk about resale value.
Also, note the seller -- Dan Means. He's one of the dealers in Pittsburgh that is selling these cards from the autograph collection. He is selling tons of autographs from this collection and only a small percentile of them are signed pre-war cards.
I have had some long conversations with a couple of dealers in the Pittsburgh area about this collection and have been trying to pry as many of the signed pre-war cards from them as possible for almost a year.
