Default Scarcity and Value Cards vs Memorabilia

Posted By: barrysloate

You know, one thing to keep in mind about baseball books is that not all of them are readable. Max just showed two interior pages from the gorgeous 1885 ABC Book, which is a great rarity but just a child's alphabet book; and the Base Ball Players Pocket Companion which I cited as one of the most important early books ever written, is really a constitution and set of rules.

So we are not just talking about whether or not we like to read books, but their collectable value. Very few of the thousand dollar plus books make for much of a read, but they are great artifacts. Yet they garner little attention.
