Nov 9, 2024 · Considered the Holy Grail of all trading cards, the 1909 American Tobacco Company T206 Honus Wagner card remains the symbol of trading card collecting today. Even in poor condition, they routinely sell for over $1 million. Most cards in the T206 set are not rare but the Honus Wagner cards are because they were pulled from production early.

Estimated Value (PSA 2): $8 Million
The so-called “mona-lisa” of collectible baseball cards, the T206 Honus Wagner cardis probably the most recognizable for non-card collectors. The card’s rarity is due to American Tobacco pulling production of its card early in its run. Wagner was among baseball’s all-time greats, respected for his hitter’s prowess and defensive abilities. The reason for the removal of Wagner is subject to debate but centers on either Wagner not wanting to be associated with a smoking product or due to a lack...

Considered one of the crown jewels for baseball card collectors, the 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle is a thing of beauty. The card’s scarcity (aside from its age) can be attributed to Topps’s low print run of high-series cards (Mantle is one of them). Add to this a legendary story about former Topps exec Sy Berger dumping cases of cards into the Atlantic Ocean, and it’s no surprise the Mantle is a popular and valuable baseball card. Even non-baseball fans are familiar with Mickey Mantle and his leg...

This pre-rookie card of legendary slugger Babe Ruth is considered one of the rarest baseball cards in history. It was issued two years before he first appeared on a card as a major league player in the 1916 M-101-4/5 set. Babe Ruth was the ultimate legend. Babe was not only the best batter but also the best pitcher at the same time! Only ten known versions of this card (one held by the Babe Ruth Museum) exist. Sales have been quite rare—the last sale for a while was a PSA 2-graded version tha...

The 1916 Sporting News (M-101-4/5) Babe Ruth is not his first card, but is considered to be his true “rookie card”as the earlier Baltimore News card from 1914 was considered a pre-rookie or minor league card. This ” Bambino ” rookie card features Ruth in a pitching pose with the Boston Red Sox before getting shipped off to the rival New York Yankees. The card is quite rare as PSA notes that only 29 versions of this card have been graded. Note that a recent sale of PSA 6 copy of the Sporting N...

These cards, distributed by Ramly Cigarettes, are among the toughest finds of all early tobacco cards. PSA reports only 2,700 graded cards out of the 121-card set, meaning that on average,there are only about 22 graded cards for each player in the set. Walter Johnson was simply a dominant pitcher, known to be one of the top five best pitchers to ever play the game. Check out this rare footage of “The Big Train” The Walter Johnson T204 Ramly card is one of his most valuable baseball cards. Acc...

While his 1952 Topps card gets all the limelight, Mickey Mantle’s 1951 Bowman card is his true rookie card and a fine one to behold. The ’51 Bowman set is one of my favorites and features breathtaking color portraits. The Mantle rookie card features the Yankee great in an unforgettable pose, with a blue sky and clouds offering a wonderful background. Mick’s rookie card was a high-series card, and as is common with later-numbered cards, the Mantle often suffered from various print and centerin...

As evidence of just how popular “The Babe” was at the time, the 1933 Goudey (R319) set features four cards of Ruth(#53, #144, #149, #188). According to PSA, card #53 (yellow background) is the hardest to find, followed by #149 (red background). Card #144 (aka ‘Full Body Ruth’) was double-printed and is more widely available. From a value perspective, all of the cards carry significant value in high-grade condition, but because of the scarcity, Ruth card #53 (yellow background) is the most val...

Never has an error on a baseball card proven more valuable than on the 1909 T206 baseball card of one Joe Doyle. Doyle, a pitcher for the New York Highlanders of the American League at the time, was a good player but only lasted five seasons and had only 22 wins. His T206 card is supposed to have “American” on the bottom front, but the error card says “Nat’l.” There are less than ten known variations of the card, with the most recent sale of a PSA 3 version of the card selling for over $400K....

The American Caramel (E90) cards of 1909 were featured inside of packs of caramel candy and targeted directly at kids. Of all the early candy and gum cards (noted as E cards in the hobby) the E90 set is actually one of the most common among all cards. The E90 Joe Jackson card is the most valuable baseball card in the set, not necessarily due to scarcity but due to the popularity of “Shoeless” Joe Jackson. Jackson was a phenomenal player, yet despite his prowess on the field, he was never ensh...

A beautiful set with striking red backgrounds,Cracker Jack cards were issued from 1914 to 1915 in boxes of Cracker Jack. While the 1914 set was issued with the Cracker Jack boxes, in 1915, they offered a mail-in program for complete factory sets, making the 1914 issue more of a rarity. PSA notes 4,500 graded cards from the 1914 set, while over 12,000 from the 1915 set have been graded. The Ty Cobb from the 1914 set is a beautiful card and is one of Cobb’s most sought-afterissues. Only 77 card...
Jun 4, 2014 · Topps produced a set of 11 cards in conjunction with this made-for-TV movie. The promo cards use the same design as the base 1991 Topps Baseball set. Although the movie is overlooked, there are a couple of significant things to note about this set.
May 3, 2024 · The reason the Topps #1 Andy Pafko is now rare is because at the time the card was first released, kids always put the first card in a set on top of their stack. This meant that any opened Topps #1 Andy Pafko cards were worn out. Very few of these cards exist in good condition today. Topps #407 Eddie Matthews Rookie Card
Sep 23, 2023 · The card is a high number card (cards 311 – 407 in the set), which means there are few numbers of Mickey Mantle rookie cards when you compare the average 1952 Topps baseball card. Topps entered the sports card industry in 1952, so the 1952 set is trendy, and even common cards of the set are sold for $1000.
