Take it from someone who "hoards" a particular non-T206 card strictly as a collector and not for resale. The person who ends up paying the most is the hoarder. You would really need to do something on the down low for it to eventually pay off. Once people know you want something, they suddenly want it too and the price keeps going up. That's how I ended up spending 2-3x the value on the last 4-5 I bought. That's fine if the value goes from $20 to $50 as a T206 common, but for Old Judge cards, it means a lot more.

Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game. There's also one about 27 baseball families, as well as a day-by-day look at the worst team in Pittsburgh Pirates history.
