IMHO, this card is either likely to be static or fall in value in the long run, while examples similar to and including the above are likely to appreciate at a significant to substantial rate.
Just my two cents worth, and happy collecting,

Sound logic there Larry! However your assumption presumes collectors will act logically
Sometimes, things are too rare for their own good. I agree with your sentiment and value the true rarities a great deal myself!
