They are both decent looking 1's although the centering on the Bowman is much worse than the Topps. It will be interesting to see where they both end.

$11,000+ for a PSA 1 o/c 1951 Mantle?

39 Play Ball DiMaggio seems very undervalued. First Joe D card other than the '38 mini-me Goudey nonsense and an absolutely classic photo. Yet the '41 Playball trades at multiples more. Hey I love '41 playball but the '39 DiMaggio is a much better card IMO.

I think the '52 Topps Mays is off-the-charts iconic and a very good investment although it has doubled in the past 2 months so I guess it's half as good an investment as it was two months ago lol.

I think the '41 PlayBall Peewee Reese is a good buy. He was a great man and a pretty darn good ballplayer too.

1989 Topps Traded Randy Kutcher cards are also criminally undervalued.

What about his 1936 World Wide Gum card or his 1937 OPC?

Anyone say Monte Irvin yet?

How about Aaron's 1954 Johnston Cookies? It's an absolute bargain compared to the current '54 Topps prices.

How about the ‘52 Topps Eddie Mathews? It has not seen near the price jumps of the ‘52 Maya and Jackie.
When I bought mine both the others were well under #407 in price, but not any longer.

All aaron had a jump but i don't think the demands are there, everyone wanted the topps.

My bad. I still think the '39 Joe D is undervalued though.

Taking off. Get it before it's too late. Price ratio between 52 topps and 51 bowman is just too great. Ppl finally realize it's undervalued
