In a lull it is. Even the 1933 Goudey Ruths seem to be somewhat flat. Some hit the market in the PWCC auction and went a little above, a little below and right on value.
Good point on the CJs flattening out about 6 months ago. Guess it was all the documentation on the 100th anniversary that riled folks up. I know it had me looking at my 1915s and wondering if I should trade some out for a cool factor 1914 (but didn't want to buy high).
As tough as pre-war can be to track, the 19th century stuff is just about impossible (for me). There are so few that they constantly look up and down at the same time due to a couple sales here n there.
Looking forward to seeing more action in the market once baseball season gears up. I know the pre-war stuff is year-round market for the die hards, but general baseball hype does seem to have an effect anyhow.
