Of course compared to almost any of the regular post war issues they are rare but no so much with some of the true pre-war rarities. That aside and back to your valuation question. Value is usually (well, almost always) determined by supply vs demand. While the supply of the Pfeffer card could be only 1, the demand side will hold it down quite a bit, as very few people are trying for a complete set of Rose Postcards. It will be worth more than a common common , and maybe approach a lower level HOF'er....but I doubt the value would be in the thousands..I would venture to guess in the $300-$500 range in poor condition....lets see what others say...........best regards
Thanks Yep. So far this is what I have determined. I understand that there are probably more postcard collectors of this set than sports card collectors. I still would like to hear from anyone on the forum that is very familiar with this set.
