Philosophical Trading Question

[FrankWakefield]

Someone who grew up in Chicago, was born in the early 40's, who bought Exhibit cards from the machines, who had fond memories of Sauer leading the league in home runs and RBIs in 1952 (now wouldn't we have thought a Dodger would have done that?), and who played left field as a kid because of Hank... it would take some prying to get that card from such a person notwithstanding book values and Lemon and Irvin. On the surface the deal sounds fair... but if you got Sauer could I then trade you a Kell and a Del Ennis for it?

Hi FranK;

I agree with your point about the Sauer "love" as a kid. I really doubt that that is the case here.

As for me trading you the Sauer for a Kell or Ennis, if you are collecting the set and it is the last card you need, or you have an Ennis "love" as you described above, the card is yours. If you only have one card in the set and I am collecting the set and I have Kell and Ennis, no trade.
