Default Attention memorabilia collectors

Posted By: DJ

As a person who collects autographs, it's all about the rarity aspect. I don't think a lot of the card guys get it. What makes a Jimmie Foxx single signed baseball so rare is that it wasn't like today where people would go into a store, buy a $12 baseball and get Bob Feller to sign it. Back in those days, a baseball would be filled up by as many players as possible.

Let me put it this way. How would you feel if there was a company that could take ANY condition plagued card and make it into a PSA9 or PSA10. How would that effect the business? It's kind of the same thing. You would have 10,000 PSA10 Ty Cobb T206 Red Backgrounds in the first month.
