1869 Cincinnati Red Stockings
The recent Cobb vs Trout thread has gotten me thinking about card values. I realize the Trout card is a one of five? and the Cobb is quite rare. However, in my opinion, both pale historically to the 1869 Cincinnati Red Stocking image. I understand the supply and demand aspects, but why does the Red Stocking card not sell for $50-$100K. It is rare yet available enough to acquire. Why don't more people "have to have it"? Is it because of the grading craze and the inability to have a high grade, set registry, etc example?
