Default HOF Bookmarks

The reason that you see that auction going for $355 is because the short prints in the set make up most of the value. In fact, the Saperstein bookmark is probably worth more than the rest of the set combined. It is an incredibly tough. Other short prints, Pettit, Cousy, Davies, Russell and the other short prints are difficult, but obtainable.

There are also print style variations in at least the Cousy and Russell cards. This is a great set! Even though I own this set, I'd buy that Saperstein card again and again if I saw it!

One last thing. There are auctions on Ebay where that say "Complete Set" that only have the main 46 cards and not the short prints. Since when is 46 of 54 complete? :-) I think this is a total misrepresentation by these sellers.
