Just my Opinion

In this weeks Sports Collectors Digest, it was stated that Donruss Playoff will
insert the $250,000 1925 Babe Ruth Jersey they won in the Lelands auction, in
packs of cards.

I for one really hate to see, valuble pieces of Basbeall history, choped up and
inserted in wax boxes in the name of "CHASE" cards to help sell the cards
inside.

The card companies also put a SLIVER of wood, in a card and call it a game used
bat,.or a tiny piece of cloth from a chopped up jersey, and call it a game used
jersey card.

I know its all about the MONEY, but I truly dislike to see these pieeces of
historydestroyed by corporations.

any thoughts??

i agree with you.the game jersey thing is getting kind of tired.especially
when the card companies put in jersey swatches of players nobody cares
about.if i pay $90.00 for a box of ud sweet spot cards,i expect the insert
card(s) should be something worthwhile.i think the autographs are the only
true valuable thing that is put in to cards.but i agree,they shouldn't cut
up a babe ruth uniform.it's acually kind of dumb.but then again it is all in
the name of money.those ruth jersey cards will be worth very little someday.

I agree. Stupid idea that ruins a good piece of baseball memorabilia.
