Some cockroach who posts under the name "oak-vault". He posts these stupid cards with pennies in them, fake zeenuts, and lately a ton of Helmar stamp cards (so forgive the confusion).
it appears that my complaints are working as most of the junk has been removed from the category. As for these tribute cards or whatever, I buy them from time to time, primarily when they depict a boxer not on other cards at the time and I've bid on some of the fantasy cards of the sort under discussion here, so I have no inherent bias against them, just a dislike for wasting my time on them when they are misclassified.

+1 It would be nice if ebay cracked down on the true junk.

Not everyone shares the same eye. Probably better to tailor searches to taste.

I agree, we all have a different eye for different things. No argument there. But, Eye or not it would be nice to have an "originals only" category for those of us that would prefer it.

Helmar
Im usually an 'originals only collector , but I've seen the Helmar cards with some different art, and I can see the two perspectives of the debate. I consider the cards more of an 'art piece' than a card, but thats just me. I do have a a Helmar Gandil and he resides by an original W series Jackson in my display

Not searches. Categories. At least put them into the right sports.

Just to keep this going, here's my latest Helmar--Babe hurling for Providence. And I have a few other new ones. But: I also bought a pricy Ruth strip card this week, and won a (real) 1912 Giants postcard at auction. So this collecting CAN co-exist!
