If a 1969 Mike Andrews non-rookie sells for $27k in a PSA-9 (POP 10), then why wouldn't a 1962 Topps baseball card with the
very difficult and unforgiving brown borders to the edge of the card...not sell for an astronomical amount when the card is a Yankees Team card with a POP of one (1) and a PSA-10!
Well, it could. It all depends on the bidders. PSA 10's are more volatile than 9s. A 1962 Yankee team card should certainly have lots of suitors and it should easily hammer well into the 5 digits. The closest comps I could find are the 1962 Maris WS and 61st HR cards that are both pop 1s. They sold for $7.8k and $6.6k respectively. The WS card sold in Jan '20 right before the run-up in prices. The 61HR card sold in 2016, so it's not indicative of today's market. I could see the card go for $50k but I wouldn't be shocked if it sold for less (or more).
That team card is probably one I would ultimately regret letting go of, unless I got a price that blew my socks off. It is an absolutely beautiful card.
