I can believe what you are said about the Wilbur Shaw game board being far more common than the driver cards from the game. I did see that Ripley Auctions had a Shaw game (without any cards) for auction back in May.
By the way, is the http://www.indy500autographs.com/ site your website? I have spent a ton of time looking at the autographs pictured on that site.

Hello, I was at that Ripley auction and hoped to win the board but it went for more than I wanted to pay at the time.
I have several of the game cards but I am looking for more, I think those, as I mentioned to Kin, are really an untapped collectible.
The website isn’t mine unfortunately. That is my good friend Jim Vogel’s site. He’s also a fellow member of the “500 club” , those of us who have autographs of at least 500 of the 784 Indianapolis 500 starting drivers. He has a great website, great resource.
