Has everyone gone mad?

I agree with the above post. While new here, I've collected cards for almost 40 years. And I've seen the same thing happen with modern cards.
Ripken is a fine example. 1989 Leiter is another.
Some fools will spend a lot of money, some will make a lot of money, but it will level back off to where it should be. Hold your guns - unless selling.

Pretty neat variant.

While checking for these (had one but long gone now ) I noticed a decent plate scratch. Pat R, you up to the challenge of tracking these

Good to see you back Chris, Hope all is well with you.


Jantz has scans of a handful of these. If I remember right they all were
pretty much straight vertical marks.

Yes, that's correct Pat. On the Scott, the lines are vertical. There are others and all have vertical lines as well. Here is a Davidson below. Board member Mybuddyinc also had a lot of Polar Bears on Ebay that included a Davidson with the same line. This lot contained a Scott with the vertical line as well.
