I have noticed that the 2009 Top Trumps Hamilton keeps getting cheaper, and the 2009 SI for Kids keeps getting pricier. What's up with that, supply? The 2020 cards are great, but being a RC collector, I think I need to get something I can call a rookie.

Both of those cards seem fairly accessible on eBay at any given time, so I am not sure if supply is the reason. I guess if I had to choose between those two options, I would go with the Top Trumps card. The image of Hamilton is not great, but I dislike the SIFK card being a car shot with just a tiny image of Hamilton on the back.

You are right, though, some of those raw Top Trumps Hamilton cards can be had for next to nothing.

Neither is a great card, that's for sure.

Ah, yes, the familiar Hobson's Choice of early Hamilton cards.
