The prize card of my collection can be traced back to hobby pioneer Edward Wharton Tigar. That provenance in and of itself makes it exceptionally cool, a card for which I would pay a premium.
There have been examples of premiums paid for provenance. For example, I believe the 1952 Topps card that was owned by Mickey Mantle (from the Dreier collection) is one such example. All 1952 Mantles have a certain cache to them -- but one owned by Mantle has been demonstrated by the market to be worth a significant premium. M |

I have many t206s from the harris collection. Don't recall paying a premium on any of them.

My one and only LC. No premium paid - maybe 10%. But neat to own one. Also was able to get one of those 'Feller Owned' - I put more premium on that being a Feller collector.

I think a small premium (10-20%) is appropriate for a pedigree card. After all, if you had a choice between the pedigreed card and the non-pedigreed card, in same condition and same price, you'd pick the pedigree card every time, no?
My only pedigreed card: ![]() Thanks, --S

As a collector of pedigreed cards, I won't pay a premium on some collectors who wanted their name on the card. Be it Mr. X, Harris, Rothman, Pollard, Hull etc... But hobby pioneers, that's a different story, I will pay a premium for Lionel Carter, Jefferson Burdick, Buck Barker, Frank Nagy, Sir E.W. Tigar etc.. I would also pay a premium for baseball players own personal cards. |

Yeah, but how MUCH of a premium would you pay for a Lionel Carter?

Like many of you know, i own the lionel carter 's t206 eddie plank and for me this card have more value than any other graded 1 plank. I love the pedigree card and the fact that card was put away long time ago but 1 of the first pioneers of our hobby.
For me all pioneers pedigree deserve à premium value . Last edited by g_vezina_c55; 06-30-2012 at 09:07 PM. |

Unless its a tougher Lionel Carter issue. I have about 25-30 different card issues w/ the Carter pedigree. A T206, '33 Goudey or 1957 Topps is pretty common since the sets weren't kept in tact and you can pick one up on ebay whenever you like. Some other sets just aren't out there like Turkey Reds or Old Judges. If something like that surfaced, I'd probably pay double the card value to land one. |
