The argument for why you would want to own the Gibson Toleteros card is an extremely easy argument. IT IS THE ONLY CARD OF A TRULY GREAT BASEBALL PLAYER. This hobby to me is ultimately about baseball...not about special cardboard, errors in printing, etc. SURE, I like having rare back T206s, but only of HOF baseball players. I have no interest in collecting cards of poor or even marginal players (it's OK to me that other people do...I just have no interest in that). I want to have cards of great players. Some think Gibson was the greatest. I am not sure I agree, but I do agree that he was great. If you are going to collect cards of great players, then I somewhat see this card as a must...your personal finances permitting.
