Opening Thoughts: Here's hoping that I pull a dual or triple material card!

Hit Cards In My First Pack:

• [Dual Movie Posters] 39 - Greer Garson / Teresa Wright (238 / 499)

I don't understand why Panini opt to place a material of Wright in this card instead of Walter Pidgeon (the gentleman featured on the poster)?

Hit Cards In My Second Pack:

• [Movie Posters] 4 - Jean Harlow (437 / 499)

Harlow was an American film actress and sex symbol of the 1930s. She passed away on June 7, 1937, due to kidney failure, so the material in this card is over 74 years old!

Closing Thoughts: I'm keeping the Jean Harlow card. Owning a piece of material of a 1930s sex symbol is creepy, but quite fascinating.

Breakdown:

• I paid approximately $3.00 per pack.
• 1 of the cards in my pack are going to be added to my main collection*.
• The most valuable card ([Dual Movie Posters] 39 - Greer Garson / Teresa Wright) in my pack has a book price of $20.00**.
• There's a 40% chance that I'll purchase a product from this series hereafter***.

*Cards in my "main collection" will most likely never be sold. I'm either a huge fan of the player, or I really like the card.

**As of this writing. Data taken from 1-3 sources.

***Ranges from 0% - 100%. The lower the percentage: The less interest I have in the product, and the less I'm willing to pay for the product.
