The Next "Big Cards"

The Robinson is a nice card. As for the NLB players with MLB cards, I hope you are right. It would be nice to see them get some attention. Hank Thompson and Don Newcombe seem to be under the radar, as well.

I've been giving this idea of next big cards a lot of thought, not because I invest but because if there is anything on my wish list that might get hot, I'd like to purchase while I can still afford it. A lot of the 50s and early 60s cards I was eying have moved quite a bit already. In terms of more recent stuff, I wouldn't be surprised to see high-grade 69T Reggie Jackson and 72T Dr J cards get out of reach in the near future.
