Not like cards in the past year IMO, and I am fine with that!

Well Leon...you never disappoint....

Are those recent acquisitions??

Type I photos haven’t nearly exploded like everything else. I still think they are so undervalued. Same with Ruth autographs. I guess I’m just not sure if these things will eventually explode and catch up, or they will kind of just always stay the same...

Can only speak for myself but I've done pretty well on my Type 1's. Often selling for 4 or 5 times what I paid

The scorecard is a recent acquisition. The team picture (on the back cover) is so great I had to have it. Not sure where I am going with it but in today's environment it seems like an undervalued piece.

But as said, some of this stuff (and this item isn't one of them as a few sales can be found) is so scarce it hurts its value. As a collector of rare type cards I have some experience. Rarity doesn't equal value, demand does.

That score card is great! I myself just picked up a rookie Joe Jackson scorecard. He had 3 hits in the game too…
