What amazes me is the collector who pays these prices:

Josh Gibson single signed baseball $1000
Josh Gibson cut signature $491
Martin Luther King single signed baseball $746
Walter Johnson single signed baseball $386
Christy Mathewson single signed baseball $998
Chrsity Mathewson signed/inscribed post card $608
Lou Gehrig signed baseball bat $2100
Fred Clarke single signed baseball $1001
Cap Anson cut signature #1 $347
Cap Anson cut signature #2 $358

What thought process goes into paying $998 for a Christy Mathewson single signed baseball?
"Wow, honey I got a $30,000 ball for $998, Now junior can go to college".
Do people really think that way?

I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.
