Most Valuable Non-Star Cards

[h2oya311]

This card often sells for such a premium (at least in high grade) that most think he's in the HOF, despite his mediocre-ness:

1933 Goudey #1 Benny Bengough

All E107 common players...

33 Goudey Moe Berg

Oh, that's a good point. I think you could likely put card #1 of most vintage sets on the list, as well as the last card....due to the "rubber band factor".

I haven't followed the prices on this card, but the T212 Miller (I think that's the one) is hoarded by Whaler on the board and sells for a premium when you can find one.

Some of the T222 short prints such as Henry and Lelivelt definitely fit the bill.

The 1933 Goudey Bengough and 1952 Topps Pafko belong on this list because of the set they are in. Just like the t206s mentioned, all would be much cheaper if they were in a different set. When talking about common players, Pafko not Bartirome is the first card that comes to mind for 52 Topps.

Hey guys,

Of course Eddie Mathews is a star card; however, in the Fall of 1952 us kids didn't know that. And,
since he was the last card (#407) in this set, his card was subject to the "rubber-band treatment".
