The scrap craze should come with a caveat if it's for investment. They are interesting examples of one-of-a-kind cards, but it seems too much like the "tulip" bubble reference

as collectors become more advanced in the set, they realize the scrap's uniqueness and rarity.....they are just finally getting the recognition they deserve.....

He has a point though. When you are a die hard T206 collector and finish up what is doable for you, then what? From experience I can confidently say some collectors that are life long collectors, and have completed the whole set, have started collecting them.

Leon...that's a really nice sentiment on valentines day...like a good relationship...the love keeps growing as you expose more about your mate!

Or in my case...once I saw the Lunacy within(T206 that is)...I broke up with her!!!!!

An Ode to Johnny V
An adaptation by Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Eminem & Rihanna

I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop
Get along with the voices inside of my head
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop
You're trying to save me, stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop

Yet, it don’t mean a thing, if it ain’t got that swing
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop
If it’s not a piece of crap, you ain’t got that scrap
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop
It makes no difference if it’s sweet or not
Just give that dealer everything you got
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop
