I have a pretty decent collection of pre-WWII baseball cards... T206s of Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, Cy Young, etc as well as a 33 Goudey Babe Ruth and lots more. I bought most of them 15-20 yrs ago and the prices have skyrocketed over the past few years.

I paid about $800 for the Cobb and now the same card in the same grade is selling for $7k and up.



I also have quite a few cards that were issued by Louisiana companies in the early 1900s. This one has a Cafe Du Monde ad on the back. So far I've only heard of 3 known cards with this back and I have 1 of them.

Lol you are clueless. Back in the day jt was a very sought after card. Then over the years peoppe realized it was mass produced to infinity. PSA alone has graded more than 200,000 Ken Griffey Jr. rookie cards in total! thats psa alone, and thats just cards that have been graded, not even the raw cards. The raw griffey upper deck rookie is not worth shite. I wish it were, i have 5 of them. You can literally go on ebay right now and buy the raw card for $5 dude

If it really is mint you should have it graded by PSA or SGC. Looking at prob $20k or more at auction.

My grandfather’s 1922 smith and Wesson .38 cal policeman special with original grips in EX condition

He was deputized in St Landry Parish during the 1927 Flood and they issued it to him right out of the crate. He maybe fired it 25 times, we have fired it about 20 more

A Brooklyn Dodgers tryout camp letter from 1939 that my grandfather was named in.

He went to the camp but never made the team.

He did make it into the Army during WWII where he played baseball at Camp Crowder, Missouri.

X-men #4 probably. It’s been a few years since I looked at values. I have a fairly significant comic collection from when I was a kid. X-men and Spider Man were my favorites.

I gave my golf autograph book to my son-in-law. It’s got Jack, Arnie, Tom Watson, Lee Trevino and Gary Player all on the same page. I’d imagine that would draw a little attention from golf fanatics.

You don’t have 5 Ken Griffey Jr Rookie cards. You’re full of shite.

You probably sold all cards when the market took a dip and now your just a salty little boy.

I was in Auburn yesterday. Went into a store that sold Auburn paraphernalia. On the wall was a framed, autograph Cam Newton, and Pat Sullivan jersey. Sullivan's was priced at $1200, and "not for sale" on the Cam jersey. I asked the girl working there about them, and why there wasn't a Bo Jackson jersey. She said that the Cam jersey was their last one, and he wasn't signing stuff anymore. Owner of the store was keeping his last one. They had a Bo jersey but it just sold. Didn't say for how much. They also had a football with all three Heisman signatures. It was not for sale.

I have all the jerseys autographed, matted and framed much nicer than the ones in the store. I also have an autographed football signed by all three.

I'm skeptical it is in mint condition, but if it actually is, that is a very sought after card.

So you should sell it to me

I also have autographed and authenticated signed jerseys of PP7, TM7 and LF7. I just need to get my JB9 jersey signed to have the modern day LSU GOATs

Yes i do.. bruh, im sorry you thought you had a gold mine. Back in the 90s it was THE card to have. I had 2, and my wifes brother had 3 i got when he passed. Come to find out, they are not worth much at all. They mass produced the frick out of them. As i stated above, psa has graded over 200,000 alone. Cards are worth money that are rare. Unfortunately, the UD kgj card is not rare. Its still a cool piece of history, griffey is my favorite player of all time. The card just isnt worth money. Here is one that is actually graded a 9.. and its for sale for $99 ebay

The raw card just doesnt have value, sorry

Most valuable i have is lebron upper deck rookie. Graded its around 3k. Mine is raw though. Most valuable to me is peyton manning 8x10 autographed and addressed to me. And a steve mccnair rookie card, autographed 3 days before his death. Was playing in a softball tourny against him and got him to sign.

I have various jerseys signed by peyton manning, ladanian tomlinson, dick lebeau, bruce smith, magic johnson. And 10 or 12 mini helmets signed by various hall of famers.
