This sealed box of 1961-62 Fleer basketball cards really shouldn't exist at this point more than 50 years after it was made, but it does and it's worth a tad more than its original price of just $1.20.
(Yep, that was just $1.20 for the whole box.)
It will be selling for a tad more than that soon as it's among many high-end items up for grabs in the current Robert Edward Auction. How much?

It's got some rough edges, fuzzy corners, some light surface snow, and a curved-but-not-awful corner crease -- but it's got some character and it's mine.
And it's also signed by Rickey Henderson.
It's a copy of his 1980 Topps Rookie Card and it's also a recent pickup from a major autograph dealer. It's also a story that has a few pieces that this collector thought made it interesting enough to present right here.

This one's a bit different, though.

The Mick is back on cardboard.
Mickey Mantle, the icon of a generation of collectors, will be back on baseball cards soon as Panini America has reached a deal with the estate of the Hall of Famer and former New York Yankee who died in 1995. It will be his first cardboard since 2012 when his family let their deal with Topps expire.
The deal is expected to be formally revealed today with at least one card perhaps coming immediately via the Panini Eternal program, though his sons David and Danny disclosed the deal to Yahoo Sports' Big League Stew in an interview.
