Response to Graig of @MidLifeCards | Rarity vs Iconic — What Really Matters?

Graig of Midlife Sports Cards asked a great question in his video, How Important Is Sports Card Rarity? It sparked a bigger conversation for me… What really matters more in the hobby — rarity, or iconic status? In this response video, I break down: What actually makes a card “iconic” Why rarity doesn’t always equal desirability The difference between mainstream and niche appeal How grading (PSA 9 vs PSA 10) influences perception And why cards like the 1989 Upper Deck Ken Griffey Jr. can draw more attention than rarer issues like the 1954 Stahl-Meyer Willie Mays This is one of those debates that really gets to the core of how we collect. Big shoutout to Graig of Midlife Sports Cards for bringing this topic up. 👇 Let me know in the comments: Are you chasing rarity… or iconic?
