mr. mosesfor no other reason perhaps than they interest me and are not so difficult to track - at least online and major auctions. I can't honestly think of a sports album that sells for less than the indian album including the more generic ones like champions of games and sports. Just as with cards, peripherals and by definition perhaps with all collectibles there is a general hierarchy of price and desire that tends to remain static within generations of collectors. It seems to me that the indian album (and related) have remained in a such a position; behind baseball and sports - but ahead of birds, flowers, even women and horses..... With note to what Eric said and his fantastic sporting girls album - and the trend lately of rising prices across the entire spectrum of non-sports - good material in demand and condition sells really well - but there is the trickle down (or up) theory as well and collectibles seem to be doing well. I just made this up about collecting the good stuff in sports or non-sports by the regular collector guy-on-a-budget: If you don't already have it - you can no longer afford it. If you already have it - you can't afford to keep it.
