Some information from card collector Liam Coughlan:
Since these cards are a "one per pack" insert for a relatively low
volume set, and since these are the only cards ever made for 36 of the
players, the demand far exceeds the supply. Specifically, according to
Classic, there was a production of 6,000 U.S. and 2,000 CDN cases, each
of which had 10 boxes per case, and if we assume there were 36 packs
per box, and with one Women in Hockey card inserted per pack, that
means there are only 54,000 possible sets in existance in the U.S., and
only 18,000 possible sets in existance in Canada. Given the difficulty
in compiling a set, I would suggest that there are only 10,000 or so
complete sets in existance. In contrast, Upper Deck prints in the
neighbourhood of one to two million of each of their hockey cards, so
the Classic cards will be much more rare and scarce, and should
continue to command a premium long after the mass produced cards from
Upper Deck are available. Don't get me wrong, I am thrilled that
Upper Deck will be featuring female hockey players for the first time
[in their 1997-98 set], but lower production runs are one of the largest
determiners of value in hockey cards. For example, Eric Lindros' Score
Rookie Card is worth $15, but his 7th Inning Sketch Memorial Cup card
is worth $40!
In addition to female hockey, I have been very involved in sportscards for 8 years, and based on my experience, after the 1998 Olypics, you will not be able to buy a set of these cards for less than $50. Currently, only Manon Rheaume, is very expensive, but watch the other cards to take off too!
