That story sort of parallels differences between modern versus pre-war/vintage card markets. That Basquiat painting of Robinson is hideous, and reminds me of a lot of the crazy modern crap out there today in cards. And just like with modern cards, the modern art market is seeing similar dramatic drops in value from just in the last couple of years. Ughhhh, now I can't get the image of that Sugar Ray Robinson painting out of my head.
