I, like most, collected cards as a child that evolved into Cobbs/Ruths etc..
I can tell you, once I held the image below in my hand, I sold about every card I owned and have not looked back.
I found that my 3,000 dollars was much better spent on this original 190* image of cy young image(Paul Thompson) rather than 3200 for a Clemente 1962 card(ebay 130377816282/AND THAT IS ON EBAY).
Not to mention, this photo is the ONLY one known and the t205 card DERIVED FROM IT. You MIGHT be able to get a psa 6 cy young t205(how many of those exist?) for that price.

This thread(facebook group)was suppose to be a positive thing for us photo collectors not a place to battle against other parts of the hobby.
Steve, I respect your passion. I hope you are able to positively channel it and grow the card sector as it is historically and still the backbone of the hobby.


For those of you interested photos, please feel free to join the group Jimmy listed below.

Thanks
Ben

PS: It is ok to like cards AND photos

I think Steve was being tongue in cheek. As in, the photo guys don't need any extra competition or a reason to drive prices up beyond what they're already at.
