would a t206 green cobb be one of them?

Bro- your reading into this too much, i was just saying if any of 'my' iconic childhood' treasures would become more affordable, i buy them, if they were declining.
Collect what-ever you wanna collect, and sure Cobb is a great player to collect.

Seems like your creating or wanting a list of cards that will retain value or such. If investing for the long haul is your motive, then maybe a IRA account is the path. I just collect, to just collect the players i like. Im not here to start a discussion on what-ifs or what the future holds.
