Full-color reproductions of the 400 most sought-after baseball cards - with a total value of over $300,000! The value of collectibles is surging, and some of the hottest collectibles around are baseball cards. Invented in 1879, these cards have been used to promote tobacco, candy, and bubble gum for over a century. During that time, they've been collected and traded by millions of fans. There are clubs, publications, price guides, and fairs devoted to the buying and selling of cards, and the rarest cards are worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Most Valuable Baseball Cards is an indispensable source of information on these collectibles. Included is a full-color reproduction of each card, together with its history or important facts about it. The approximate value of each is also given, along with an explanation of that value. Also included are oddities - such as baseball cards that were never produced - and special cards such as Bowman's 1955 series of thirty-one umpire cards, now worth $550.
