Default Every now and then i think about back in 1909...

When these Tobacco cards were being made in some print shop and then inserted into cigarette packs. A gentlemen (or lady) buys these cigarettes and opens them, finding a Plank, Collins, Johnson or any card in mint shape then either tosses it aside or gives it to his son to play with. Did these people have any idea that those cards would be worth so much money and to compare todays prices to what folks made back then. It just amazes me that these cards ever made it to 2006 in poor-good shape at best.


I guess there are about 50-60 T206 Wagner cards out there, and then you see a T204 Ramly of Plank with a PSA population of maybe 12 known go for much less is another head scratcher. Or a E92 Crofts Candy Eddie Collins with a PSA population of 3. I wonder if in 2106 any of the modern cards will still be around and how much people will be paying for them.
