Oh, the good ole days of Diaz Cigarettes.....
when $1500.00+ could get you a complete card:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/CUBA-1924-Ba...p2047675.l2557 I know it's Lyons rookie card.

Agreed, being the Lyons rookie card definitely drove up the price way beyond a typical Diaz HOF'er at Lyons' level (Ruffing is also a RC and would be the same situation). The card presents very well and there is nothing else close to it when it comes to a Lyons RC. In short, if I was still in the HOF RC game (and saw this card on e-bay), I would have gone higher, at least $2K. These are so rare and impossible to find, I spent nearly 10 years looking for an example and never came across one that was available for sale/auction.

When trying to figure out what to bid, I was searching everywhere to find a completed sales price on a Diaz Lyons and I came up empty but I could have swore I saw one for sale from a auction house within these past couple years? With a few sec. left I bid $750 thinking I had a chance but not expecting to not even be half way. Nice card and congrats to the winner

It was me who won the Lyons. I'm in the same boat as Phil, except I'm still in the "rookie card" game. If anyone wants to sell a Ruffing for the same price, I'm your guy.
