Hank should be worth some good money. I just saw it on tv. Find a dealer and have it appraised.   I just checked. Wrong number for big money. #128 = 4.20. Check the cost for an early one.\n\nhttp://bbonly.com

There is still a viable market for rookie cards, you just need to find the right ones. Right now, you gotta have an Albert Pujols card. Some others to look for would be the Mets' David Wright and the RedSox J. Papelbon...future stars.

Get a Beckett's Baseball guide.  They have most cards out there that are somewhat recent. I am pretty sure they will have Michael Jordan's rookie Baseball card value.  You can find a beckett's baseball guide at card and comic shops.

Go to a Beckett guide and look it up.  If it is from one of the main card companies (Topps, UpperDeck, Fleer, etc) then it will be listed.\n\nCondition, year printed, and rarity are also issues.\n\nIf it is some promo like a "Mother's Cookie" card, you'll have to go to a different guide.

Check Ebay.....another place, is got to a local book store (Borders or Barnes & Noble).  Look for a magazine called "Tuff Stuff". Its a sports card & collectibles price guide.  Starting Line Ups will be in there..

The price guides list the most valuable cards by price.  A card is "valued" by how good the player is doing, and more importantly, how rare the card is.\n\nA card is defined as rare by how many copies were printed.  Numbered cards (e.g. only 1 printed, or only 99 printed, etc.) are more valuable because of the law of supply (and demand).\n\nOther valuable aspects:  Is the card autographed?  Autographed cards (signed by the ballplayer and authentized by the company as a real signature) or more valued than a "relic" card.  A relic means it might be a game-worn glove, or a piece of the player's bat from an actual game.  Again -- the company stands behind its claim that the relic is from an actual game, and was actually used by the player.\n\nOn the baseball packs, the odds of pulling valuable card (also called an "insert") is listed.   So, the greater the odds, say, one pack in 1,200 packs, makes the card more rare than, say, one pack in 3 packs.\n\nOne last thing -- the condition you keep your card in, once you open the pack, makes it valuable.   Obviously, a card that has been placed in a protective sleeve, or in an archival safe folder, is far more valuable to someone who might buy it from you, then if you accidentally bent a corner of the card.\n\nNow -- to answer your 2nd question:  What is a good baseball card?   Aside from the things mentioned above, it is a personal thing.   If you collect players from a specific nation, or region of the world, it might of no special worth to most collectors.   But, for you, it makes your collection a personal thing of satisfaction.\n\nNever base your estimation of an item solely by someone else's opinion.   You should enjoy your hobby.   That way, you won't be disappointed if you "fail" to get that elusive "valuable" card.

I have over 30,000 sports cards. 90% are rookie cards, and 3% are game worn jersey cards. Interested?

Benny was never even a starter. He has no place in a legends set. I did email them though, told them that I thought it was a cheap shot and if they put it in I would not be buying that set. Good or bad folks deserve their dignity.

The only way to find out is to make offers and make posts to your league message board. Let everyone know that you are looking to deal starting pitching for closers. Just keep in mind that a lot of people won't deal any closer for any price, because they tend to horde saves. I know I wouldn't trade any of my closers for Ervin Santana unless I was totally desperate for starting pitching. Beckett, on the other hand, might actually get you something. He's good enough to get a decent price.

Buy a Beckett's Guide for values of cards.  If the '89 is a rookie card it will have value.  But I don't think he is one of the super stars that would bring much.  Also as a rule, the late 80s cards aren't worth a lot because there were so many produced.  Limited edition or graded superstar cards (A Nomar Garciaparra card rated a 9 is worth $100 for instance) have higher value.  What you really need is a Mickey Mantle rookie card.  Good luck.

Check Beckett.com or look in Baseball Beckett or Tuff Stuff.  If he's signing, it should be listed, in the ads or show listings.

True, the newer releases of Mantle cards are not worthless. They are insert cards and usually have value over $1. It's probable that the 2006 release, like the 1996 release, commemorates the anniversary of the Mick's death, and so might be made in scarcer quantities to generate more interest. \n\nYour question is, however, quite ludicrous, I'm sorry to confess. "...From lets say 1951"? The 1952 Topps and 1951 Bowman Mickey Mantle cards are perhaps <i>the</i> most sought-after baseball cards in the history of collecting. Try tens of thousands of dollars for one in excellent condition.

Yeah it all depends on the type of card it is and the condition it's in.  You can look in a beckett price guide though.  It's probably not worth much, I'd guess $1 or so, if that.

its a nice card, and they[ card companies and dealers] would have you think  it's a treasure[ unless you are trying to sell it to them]  but there are a lot around... how many "chips" do you think you can get off 1 bat... a thousand?? and consider the language, "....A bat used in the ws"... there must have been 100 bats used legitimately in the ws, and often the card companies make arragements for a player to use a diffrent bat each time at bat and maybe 1 bat for every swing in practice before the game... they hold special games jus so players can keep changing uniforms evey inning , then they sell the uniforms or pieces of them as "game worn".... i saw it on "60 minuts" or some show like that.\n  all that said , it still a cool card to keep and pass on to your children... anyway ive bought plenty of cards like that from dealers for $5... and i'm sure i overpaid.... yes feel good you got the card  keep it in good condition for your grand children.
