Ok, maybe this is a stupid question but ever since I saw the item on ebay it has been bugging me. Why would these still be considered baseball cards? I have seen examples of these sheets before, but this was the first intact notebook I had ever seen. Since these have now been proven to have come from a notebook front and back cover, why are they worth so much. Is it because they have been listed as a W-UNC set for the last decade that makes them retain their value?

I understand the notebook itself has intrinsic value as a display piece (so it wouldn't all of the sudden become worthless) but shouldn't these now be removed from the baseball card category. Nowhere does it say to cut them out, no dotted lines around the pics, etc.

Lastly, I just want to pose a theoretical question. If the pictures on this notebook were oval as opposed to square (baseball-card like) would the pieces have any value at all, or would Mr. Huff be the only one selling them?
