I sure do miss when I was getting amazing ones for less (sometimes much less) than 30-40 dollars just 5-6 years ago.

Me too, but that ship has sailed. The only question is whether it is time to cash in.

I don't know that there's any upside, but you can still get amazing Type 1 press photos of actors, musicians, and other notable people for as little as $10.

I guess the question to you is, is it worth it to you?

Is this going to be a PC set or do you intend to turn it around?

Really matters not what others here think, if you want to do it, just do it!

Cheers,

Surely seems to be an iconic set that currently holds lots of interest and it could certainly increase bit by bit in value over the upcoming years.

I can't really say whether Fleer will fall out of favor. Personally, I like the set. The rectangles give the cards a Prairie-style look, very artsy.

I have decided to sell what I already accumulated of this set (60%). It is in the BST 1980 & Newer forum.
