Enjoyed it Orlando.... very interesting and informative. I think those 1974 Laughlin cards will definitely be getting some added attention and respect, moving forward.

Great video. If there was a Gibson plating days card it might be the most valuable in the hobby. That Billikin Charleston is amazing! Didn’t know that a playing days Charleston existed. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. For Paige I think both the ‘49 Leaf and ‘49 Bowman are his rookies. Leaf is so expensive I will get the Bowman someday.

Thanks for your great comments. There is only one Josh Gibson playing days card. Literally one exhibit card from 1931, it’s autographed, probably the most expensive negro league card if ever sold

Would love to have a playing day Negro league card. I have many autographs as I traded with a dealer who use to attend their reunions. I have many beautiful autographed items including a Buck Leanard bat with 164 autographs, a Kansas City Monarch ball 47 autos, Homestead Grays with 53 former player autographs and other framed items. Their autographs are so nice. Obviously do not have a Josh Gibson but his son Josh Gibson Jr. is on most of the items. Great rookie card book.

I used to see those old tyme cards all over the place back in the day lol I just figured they were like every other oddball set from the era. I honestly didnt really care for the image on the fronts so they never caught my eye. Now I can appreciate them. Those old Cuban cards and Mexican league cards are like gold!

Thanks for showing, didn't know about that book. Some of those cards I've been following for the last 30 years and only have been able to get a few. The '10 Punch Cigarros Pop Lloyd and a '23-'24 Toms Guitierez, another Cuban set, of Oscar Charleston have come up to auction in the last year and each went for over $100,000. Now that Charleston is on the all time OPS and a few other top 10 lists, hopefully more people will learn about what a great player he was. But unfortunately that means his cards will even be more out of reach.

Thanks for sharing, love the information. After seeing the Laughlin Gibson go for almost $3,500 on ebay last night, I am wishing I would have bought the complete set when it sold on REA last month. Hopefully the cards come back down in price. I have been trying to find cards from that set at a decent price for the past year, and haven't had any luck so far.

Do you consider post career cards to be rookie cards?
@ACollectorsDream
3 ай бұрын
I don’t consider post career cards as rookies if there are playing days cards. In the case of Negro League players, there are no playing days cards. In this case their first card is considered their rookie.
