Bubble

Some of you may listen to the show Marketplace on NPR. They recently did a story on the “baseball card bubble.” Apparently, having a mint condition card is not all we used to think it was when we were kids. There were stories of finding that rare but flawed Honus Wagner card, selling it, and living like you’d just won the lottery.

This notion seems to have been fueled by that show Antiques Roadshow, where people bring in their junk, and discover that Grandpa’s teakettle is worth $20K.
