Default OT: Does Anyone Here Collect Those Multi Thousand $$ Inserts?

Posted By: DJ

What's worst than checks is when they clip a Gold Hall Of Plaque. I saw one on eBay of Al Lopez that was about an inch by an inch and it looked stupid. As stupid as that Red Grange that I mentioned above, where they clipped a card triangularily and consider that a price for someone.

The worst (IMO) is Tri-Star. Their inserts appear to be cards and there's nothing worse than seeing the center of a vintage Ted Klu. card and that's it. They also love to clip common 54 Archives card. Yick!

There are A LOT of Jackie Robinson signed checks. It's like with any horde or find, there is a closet full of collected personal checks.

I actually bought 750 checks of Wizard of Oz actor Jack Haley in one shot ten years ago from a fellow dealer who had more to part with as well.
