1951 Mays vs. 1954 Aaron
 

I am not a PSA member (so can't check pops), nor do I have access to Vintage Price Guide. So, please question:

What is lower pop in PSA 7 and 8 grades - the 1951 Bowman Mays RC, or the 1954 Topps Aaron RC ?

And what is the value of the '51 Mays in PSA 7 and 8 - and the value of the '54 Aaron in PSA 7 and 8 ?

My guess is the '51 Mays RC is undervalued - maybe not ? And the 1954 Aaron is not undervalued - just my guess.

Thanks, steve

Here are the pop report numbers:

1951 Bowman Mays PSA 7: 92, PSA 8: 71
1954 Topps Aaron PSA 7: 299, PSA 8: 172

I don't have access to VCP prices, but here are the SMR values:

1951 Bowman Mays PSA 7: $3,200, PSA 8: $10,000
1954 Topps Aaron PSA 7: $1,600, PSA 8: $4,200

Hope this helps!

Mays RC vs Aaron RC
 

So, the 1951 Mays PSA 7 is roughly half the pop as 1954 Aaron PSA 8.

Yet the 1954 Aaron PSA 8 is worth more than the 1951 Mays PSA 7.

Interesting. Seems like more value to be had in a 1951 Mays PSA 7.

Thanks, steve

No problem, glad I could help!

I wonder what the update on these price and pop are now lol

You don't need to be a member to check the pop report.

1951 Bowman Willie Mays population psa 7 -112 psa 8 -75.

1954 Topps Henry Aaron population psa 7-363 psa 8 192.

I can’t find a solid price on them

But 9 years later it seems that the numbers have grow but not by much.
I wonder if this is all from resubmitting these cards. I know that the price have went up more then the pop lol. I hope the original poster bought both back then.

This information is not correct, actually, with regards to SMR value.

Mays 51 Bowman PSA 7 = $12,000 and PSA 8 = $42,500
Aaron 54 Topps PSA 7 = $6,000 and PSA 8 = $22,000

Guys, the original question was asked 9 years ago. Of course the information is out of date.

Sorry about that! Missed that crucial piece of information.
Well, the SMR price info is now updates :rolleyes:

Well thanks for the current prices Brian. Lol thanks for making this clear John.

So the prices went up nicely. This is only psa like I said before I wonder how many have been resubmitted or crossed over. In 9 years this would be a small
Amount of cards to come in to the hobby so the fact that even some of these are resubmitted show how scare a lot of these vintage rookie are .
