I want to echo this link. Packed full of great info on this set. It helped me tremendously last year finding a Stan Musial for my Musial collection. Thanks to Ted Z and others for the great info helping all of us newbies out.

Ok so being the jackie fan that I am, I obviously have a lot of interest in this card that just popped up on ebay..

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1947-Orig-Ho...sAAOSwr7ZW3kEu

Now the thing is I can not find this card anywhere on google searches and VCP has the last one being sold for 1550 in 2014 and 750 before that in 2012. Is this card really that much? seems steep but im not sure. any thoughts? Does anyone have a good grasp on the value of this card or seen it go at auction in any other grade?

You are probably finding results from the Homogenized Bond cards of Robinson with the printed backs. Totally different series.

The card in your photo post looks like the square corner Robinson.

As far as the ebay listing, I have been buying/selling these SGC graded Bond Bread cards for several years. The Williams, Robinson, Musial and even the Reese sell very well. For a low-grade Williams or Robinson I expect $100-150 range. For a high-grade, Williams and Robinson may reach a lot higher. I saw a Williams SGC 9 sell for $1000 last summer. From your numbers a few posts ago, both could be realistic prices even for this card (although more likely 9+ range cards). As Exhibitman noted, the Bond Bread Robinson series is more popular and much more valuable, but these small Bonds in high-grade can costly.
