Myth: 1936 Diamond Star cards with blue ink are rarer than the green ink cards, and so if you find one in good condition it is therefore worth more than its green-backed counterpart from 1934. Price guides will confirm this.
NO. The rarest diamond star cards in good condition are the 1934 cards with green backs (1-23). It is nearly impossible to find a true 1934 Diamond Star card in excellent condition or better. If you have a psa 5 or better from 1934, I’ll buy it. Blue-backed 1936 DS in excellent condition are plentiful, and should be cheaper than the ’34 versions, but they're not.
