Thanks Brett

Sorry Brett. I was a little thrown off by your trying to explain that they weren't technically high numbers. It led me to believe that you were more focused on the "high number" thing, rather than why "high numbers" generally carry a premium. If I offended, I apologize.

I may be wrong but I believe one of George Verchek's SCD acticles about Lionel Carter mentioned he had a letter from one of the hobby heavyweights of the day dated in July 1961 mentioning that the second series of 1961 Fleer showed up in their town.

He mentioned Cy Young was in a suit instead of a baseball uniform.

I read that somehwere over the years but I believe it was an article about Carter.
