There was a time in the 50's when the Yankees players got double the $125 rate. They were selling 250 Million cards a year roughly, if their PR is to be believed. They never made a ton back in the day, they had tight margins and moreso after buying out the Fleer Baseball contracts for $395K in '66. They weren't hurting but the bigger profits came in the 80's.
