I have a price guide from around 1980 that lists the Nolan Ryan/Jerry Koosman rookie at $12 in near mint.

Guess what? It went up!

I think vintage will hold it's value and it'll go up one day. It may be another 30 years but it will be more valuable although I probably will not be here to see it.

Yes and your right it was $12.00 and around 1986 I believe it hit $50.00 then spiked up to $2000.00 only to drop to a few hundred dollars so its a roller coster ride. My father bought the 1968 Nolan Ryan for $50.00 and he sold it for $1500.00 for his Don Mattingly collection. I think at some point they will spike back up but I am not sure when.
