Hey Ron...

Ever since I posted a recurring thought has been that someone would mistakenly think from what was posted that a Fatima team card should cost less than a player card...

I have some player cards. I have never owned one of the small team cards. I'd like to get just one, some day.

But if I look at eBay, or if I look at old mail lists and catalogs, it sure seems that team cards were listed with greater frequency than team cards.

Oddly, some of the player cards, when found, are more affordable than team cards. So the way I see it, if a fellow just had to have a Fatima photo card, he'd probably come across a T200 small team card before he would a T222 player card. Even though some of the player cards, when found, oftentimes sell for less.

I suspect that some folks just want a type card of each. Some shoot for a T200 of their favorite team, or of a league, or all 16. And even fewer folks put forth serious effort for a set of the players. The players are extremely difficult to complete. Cards of John Henry, Walter Johnson, Nemo Leibold, and a few others are seldom seen, seldom available.
