Default Mini Sets -- Worth More as a Group or Individually?

As I've put my collection together over the years, I've often discovered some fun mini sets could be put together from the individual cards that make for great stories about the cards and players. I'm sharing one of mine here and would be interested to see what interesting mini sets any of you have put together? But also, I'd be interested in anyone's take about if to sell, would mini sets like these be worth more sold as sets or as cards sold individually? Thanks!

I would think they’d definitely be worth more individually…. Just like full sets vs breaking up and selling cards one by one.

If I were buying all 3, I would ask for a discount from the sum of the 3 cards, for sure.

(Great cards, btw! Always cracks me up to see how scrawny Evers was - couldn’t the artist have painted with with a just a little more buff??&#128514

In general, cards sell better as individuals. Your particular cards would sell better as a set IMO and probably get a premium. It's a popular trio, the grade and centering is matched perfectly, and they're just beautiful cards together.

Default No question - individually

A "set" this small - no question to me - individually.

I am actively buying and selling vintage sports cards graded and raw. Feedback as a buyer: https://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=297262

I am accepting select private consignments of quality vintage cards (raw or graded) and collecting "want" lists for higher end ($1K+) vintage cards.

Typically as individuals.
That said, these 3 with the 5 grades, Chicago, and all yellow back and grey uniform may actually do better as a set. Makes it easier for the purchaser to get 3 quality cards all one swoop and really, how often on here do we hear about folks "paying up" for the cards they want.
I don't know there is a steadfast correct answer. but these make a very nice set!!
