I think that about sums it up on a few levels.

He spent alot on the DBacks this offseason as well. Im glad he displays all those nice cards for the public instead of them never seeing the light of day.

[Dpeck100]

It says his collection numbers in the thousands. Uh no. Try well over 10 million.

He says that he has high end versions of 16 of the 20 most valuable cards (not all baseball). So what are they?

T206 Wagner
T206 Plank
52 Topps Mantle
Cobb/Cobb


Beyond that I don't really know. Some of the cards from the Old Judge NY Giants set?

I don't know exactly what is in Kendrick's *entire* collection, but I know there were 41 cards in the Phoenix Art Museum exhibit.
I took a few pics, I wish I had taken one of all of them so I would not miss or forget any that were there. I will admit to being a bit star struck (especially by condition )
I'll eventually remember or figure out the other 7 cards, but I jotted down these 34 below...
These were SPECTACULAR!

1915 Cracker Jack Ty Cobb
1933 Goudey Lou Gehrig #37 portrait
1934 Goudey Nap Lajoie
1934 World Wide Gum Babe Ruth #28 yellow
1934 Goudey Lou Gehrig #61 batting

Can you please provide me the grades of the cards you listed of his fantastic collection?

The affable Diamondbacks owner declined to state the value of his collection, which numbers in the thousands.

It's a poorly worded sentence, but they're referring to the number of cards in his collection.

I see. I didn't read the article and just saw the caption next to his smiling face.

Aside from the huge money cards I wonder if he collects any sets like the 1952 Topps or another marque set.

It looks like a quick read so I will check it out.

With as much money as he makes, I'm sure the answer must be yes. I mean, if he's a lover of cardboard, as we all are, he has to be collecting other things as well. I can only imagine what and in what condition. I'm sure it's awesome, whatever it is.

I loved his comment about having to assassinate someone to get the cards. I find it so interesting that the trading card hobby is one where even a guy who has a net worth in excess of a billion dollars can't just go out and acquire any card he wants.
