What's hot & what's not
 

Posted By: <b>Ben</b><p>Thought it might be interesting to get everyone's observations about what's selling well in today's prewar market, and what isn't. I'll start us off with a few of the obvious ones. These are all, of course, just my observations.<BR><BR><B> HOT </B><BR><BR>-Old Judges, Mayos, virtually everything 19th century<BR>-Caramel cards, especially the tougher issues in higher grades<BR>-Bread cards (Brunner's, General Baking, Tip Top)<BR>-High grade t205's<BR>-T206 errors, printer's scraps, proofs<BR><BR><BR><B> NOT </B><BR><BR>-T206's in mid grade<BR>-T201's, T202's<BR>-1920's E sets (e120, e121, e220, etc)<BR>-Strip cards (w514, w515 etc)<BR>-Goudey's and Playball's<BR><BR><BR>Also, it seems as though 50's stars are very cold these days, many deals to be had there (if you're into that kinda thing). Your ideas?<BR>

Posted By: <b>David Seaborn</b><p>Ben,<BR> I generally agree with your post, the Mayos have been particularly hot (and plentiful) lately, even when they are in terrible condition.

Posted By: <b>murcerfan</b><p>I also agree with your lists.<BR>unfortunatly most of the pre-war cards i am currently hunting are on the hotties list.<BR>Non-sport issues from A&G , Kimballs, Duke, Goudey, etc..all seem to be warming up.

Posted By: <b>Anthony</b><p>Ben-<BR> Wish you were right on all of those, but I'm getting beat up on '41 Playballs right now. They seem to be pretty strong in the NrMt and up level.<BR>And with Kit Young buying up Cracker Jacks (as we've discussed) those in mid grade are pretty high.
