Record prices for Hank Aaron cards

peter more like the hollywood crowd ,,,

I knew of one collector, who had a very extensive/expensive collection, that would only deal with auction houses and well known dealers. He would not buy from eBay. Ever.

That said, the Aaron is a tough card to find centered. A thing of beauty it is as well .....

People with big money, whether they work on Wall Street or in Hollywood, can collect, too.

Maybe both but some of the (alleged) manipulation I see going on looks more like financial than Hollywood types.

I know there will eventually be a trickle down to Aaron's lesser graded cards, but I hope it holds off a while as I continue to add his cards to my collection.

good for him!

I also have been noticing a lot of movement on Hank Aaron rookie cards on Ebay of late.

Its crazy what some people will pay based on the population report. I remember seeing a common 86-87 fleer basketball card in a psa 10 sell for like 6k just because there was only like a population of 2 10's.

Still feel the '54 Johnston Cookies is a hugely under-valued and under-rated card. Actually most Aaron cards in mid-grade can be great buys.

Makes me think that his 55 card will go up in value.........

You are spot on Brian! Time to buy or get a '55 Aaron.
