Kind of like the 'gimmick' that the American Tobacco Company used to get young fellas to buy cigarettes back then.

I just saw a Kyle Seager uni relic card. That should go for about a nickel.

Not at all alike. The kids had a product, cigarettes, that they could resell.

If you look at the top of the page it says Vintage WW2 and older. Why are you surprised people have a preference for that here?

Up until 2 years ago, I had a huge modern collection. I got tired of all the bs from card companies and sold it off to concentrate on Pre WW2 vintage and Roberto Clemente.
