DJI can't really see comparing baseball cards to art as art is created and art is very much limited. Art is a persons vision...even if most of us argue the merit of some art. Has anyone seen the work of Jeff Koons who doesn't even create his own art?
This common T card comes in all kinds of shapes and forms and you can't exactly buy a smaller Munch for a lot less (unless you talk about a different work of art, maybe smaller...a sketch, doodle), something produced from a machine and cranked out in the millions and millions lost along the way, littered in the streets in the turn of the century.
You can purchase a $10 version of this card, or go nuts and spend "foolishly" (IMO) a $7,000 version of the same thing, just prettier. We have 8 million people in this country that are millionaires and if they want to spend $6,000, let them. The great thing about cards is that you can obtain a love and addiction at any income, unlike most of us who will never own an original Picasso or stupid rare, Faberge egg or a chair that a King in the fourteenth century once sat on in England. Too each is own.
