CUrrent environment Creating Some 1971 BB PSA 9 HOFer and Star RC Bargains?

70ToppsFanatic

Given the recent run-up we have been seeing in tough higher-end 1970s cards, I was looking at the 1971 Topps BB PSA 9
HOFers and RCs (condition-senstive so lots of tough stars) and analyzing what undervalued bargains relative to VCP that may
be sitting out there when considering the reported populations and magnitude of stardom.

Here's what I came up with:

Cards I believe are undervalued and would sell above VCP average (if offered) in the current environment

5 Munson (pop 4) $8148 - Desirable due to player and very low population, relative scarcity and current environment would probably bump this one (10%-20%)

20 Jackson (pop 8) $3484 - Seems to be undervalued relative to VCP avg of stars with higher population (e.g. Blyleven, Rose). Similarly valued relative to Clemente
but with half the population (10%-20%)

30 Niekro (pop 8) $214 - Seems to be undervalued relative to VCP avg of similar stars with similar population (e.g. Sutton, Perry). Definitely a candidate to move if one
came available (40%-60%)

160 Seaver (pop 3) $5699 - A lot like Munson, If one of these came available a move up would not be a surprise (10%-20%)

250 Bench (pop 5) $2803 - Seems to be undervalued relative to VCP avg of stars with higher population (e.g. Jackson, Rose). Similarly valued to Clemente but much lower
population (30%-50%)

300 B Robinson (pop 6) $3450 - Seems to be slightly undervalued relative to VCP avg of stars with higher population (e.g. Jackson, Rose) (10%-20%)

325 Marichal (pop 9) $239 - Seems to be undervalued relative to VCP avg of similar stars with similar population (e.g. Sutton, Perry) (30%-50%)

580 Perez (pop 7) $1112- Seems to be slightly undervalued relative to VCP avg of stars with higher population (e.g. Kaline) (35%-50%)

625 Brock (pop 9) $1313 - Seems to be slightly undervalued relative to VCP avg of stars with higher population (e.g. Kaline) (20%-30%)

640 F Robinson (pop 7) $1161 - Seems to be slightly undervalued relative to VCP avg of stars with higher population (e.g. Kaline) (10%-20%)

709 Baylor/Baker RC (pop 6) $2239 - Seems undervalued relative to VCP average due to low pop scarcity. (20%-40%)

Cards that seem unlikely to move much in the current environment

1 Orioles (pop 6) $655
14 Concepcion RC (pop 26) $349
26 Blyleven (pop 14) $2908
45 Hunter (pop 16) $333
50 McCovey (pop 13) $475
55 Carlton (pop 8) $735
100 Rose (pop 9) $4481
140 Perry (pop 8) $450
180 Kaline (pop 9) $1777
210 Carew (pop 14) $577
230 Stargell (pop 12) $480
264 Morgan (pop 5) $632
276 Foster RC (pop 9) $389
280 Jenkins (pop 3) $768
341 Garvey RC (pop 23) $1603
361 Sutton (pop 8) $358
380 T Williams (pop 11) $293
384 Fingers (pop 3) $2293
400 Aaron (pop 36) $941
450 Gibson (pop 27) $515
513 Ryan (pop 26) $3026
530 Yaz (pop 33) $458
550 Killebrew (pop 34) $446
570 Palmer (pop 28) $527
600 Mays (pop 12) $2700
630 Clemente (pop 15) $3056

Undeterminable

525 Banks (pop 3) $NA

Anyone have different thoughts on any of these?

Thanks for an interesting post, although it makes me vomit since 1971 is the 1st year I collected cards (if only 7 year olds had a little more foresight)
