Baseball card collectors should realize that non-card tobacco packs, signs, tins, etc are in and of themselves collectable and displayable. The only real issue concerning buying a cardless pack is how much you pay. The problem board members have with the baseball fan paying $1,000 for one of those graded 1919 Sweet Caporal packs is not the pack, but the $1,000 (along with that the seller promotes and the bidder beleive that you can pull T206 Wagner out of a 1919 cigarette pack). If the baseball fan paid $75, these same board members might say, "Nice pack. Will look nice dispaid with your T206s."
