Well his perfectly centered Rose rookie PSA 7 - Experiment card- went for $4,352. Not overly impressive at all IMO. I have no idea what it says about the buying group theory....nor could I care less. I don't own a Rose rookie because, well, it's an ugly card.

i agree...despite the fact the rose rookie has always had somewhat of a mystique to me...it is a lame card. i much prefer the 64 or the kahns.

Can you imagine what the '64 would sell for if Topps hadnt made that abortion of a rookie card in 1963? So much nicer! As someone else mentioned previously, I am a rookie collector, and would theoretically love to own a Rose Rookie, but I dont simply because it is so damn ugly.

I started acquiring the cards from the 50's of players I coveted as a child a few years ago...and while my initial intention was to obtain rookies in most cases...I deviated when I felt the rookies were not the best looking cards to me. As a result I have a 56 clemente...a 55 aaron...a kahns auto'd rose...etc.

I would say it is a whole lot more than "a little cropping." The rookie has a mini-photo of his neck-less face set in that red dot on a yellow background. The 64 shows that nice Reds uniform with a backdrop and the AllStar Rookie trophy (and um, his neck). Lets face it, Rose isnt known for his good looks, so a face-only portrait isnt a great idea.

I think that had more to do with the fact that ebay was flooded with them. It's still impressive when you consider what they were selling for a couple of weeks ago.

Up over 100% in a month. Absolutely awesome. If you owned a position in a stock that doubled in a handful of weeks and you sold and took your profit you are beyond thrilled. Nice going regardless of the future direction of the card.

The seller is listed as New York. Bob is in Savannah. Did he say it was his card or was he just pointing to it as a good test?

He did say it was his card. Maybe he has a mailing address in NY as well.
