Default Crossover value?

Posted By: Gary B.

Are there occurrences where a particularly notable rarity of a card in one issue effects the value of the same player in another issue?

The only example I can think of this, and even then it might just be my fantasy, is Honus Wagner. Period Wagner's tend to generally be quite valuable. How much, if any, of this is due to the fame, rarity and value of the t206 Wagner? Would Wagner have QUITE the level of appeal and respect he does now if not for that card? Do you think that card makes other issues of Wagner more valuable?

What about the 52 Mantle? All of of Mantle's cards tend to go for a lot. Would that be quite the case if not for the 52 Mantle?
