As Stephen said, it's a high number, so that works in your favor. The big 'problem' is, Pops' cards don't really have any of the glamour of other main HOF'ers. It's sad in a way, but he's ignored a lot by collectors. People are always looking for Mays, Mantle, Aaron, Ryan, etc., from that era, but Willie has been a secondary concern. There isn't a premium paid for his cards. If you're looking purely for investment, I'd say grab a nice Bench. Although not really rare, that card seemingly has staying power.
