I find the Kendrick accumulation boring. Yes, a few pristine examples of rare cards....but no love there. I can look and appreciate a group of low grade cards over and over again and never tire of them. I suspect Kendrick rarely even thinks of his. I think he "buys the holder" not the card.
Also as mentioned...The 49 Duke of Flatbush seems out of place. And some of those cards look trimmed to me ![]() |

Snider might be in the grouping because he could be a favorite of Kendrick. Like a childhood hero or something. Did Kendrick pick the cards or the Hall?
I have no basis for this, just speculating.

Is it just me, or does that PSA 10 1952 Mickey Mantle look off centered? It's definitely not 50/50 left to right. And it has a bit of a diamond cut, as the top right border is closer to the edge than the top left border and the lower right side border is closer to the edge than the top right side border. How'd it get a 10??

It's like I said, a collection of holders not cards. No love.

Not sure I get you....because someone buys high grade cards he does not love baseball cards....I know if I was a millionaire I would buy some nice looking stuff like that to...and yes I would love owning them and be very very proud of them....why not buy the best if you can afford it!!! I would still be a collector at hearth just with better looking cards in my collection. Post # 7 Last edited by Zone91; 05-25-2013 at 07:36 PM. |

Adrian, everyone knows the Wags is trimmed. The Harris Mathewson is suspect, the psa10 mantle is tilted, (the "least" of the psa10 52T mantles), The Arron doesn't look perfectly centered and the e90-1 jackson is "off" right to left. Just saying, a true collector could find the same cards with as good or better eye appeal for a lot less money.....unless they are buying the grade and not the card. Dave

Ah OK...I did not know that....to me they simply look better than the cards I own....that is why I still have a lot to learn. Post # 8 Last edited by Zone91; 05-25-2013 at 06:13 PM. |
