Yeah, those cards do almost look too good. As a 1914 collector, they almost look wrong. (Not so wrong.....I wish I had them!!). Buy it's almost surreal to see them so clean. But I think part of the "wrong" is that the cards cheated!! They are, presumably, the only 1914's that did not face the many obstacles all the other 1914's faced. I think therein lies the somewhat odd feeling any 1914 collector experiences when gazing at those cards. It's like they should not exist. They represent an unfair comparison to all other 1914's.
In a way any 1914 collector should be happy more of those pristine cards didn't turn up. I guess it could be conceivable that 50 of each card could have been discovered originating from someone from the company. Imagine 50 pristine Jackson's and Matty's, etc... Sounds awesome on the surface, but again, it would ruin things in a way also. All mystique would be gone. Like if 50 perfect Honus's and Plank's showed up. Just would feel kinda wrong... |
