It is probably the prize card in my collection, and one that I seldom see available.
Luke, the set might lack those players you mentioned, but from what I've seen thus far, the offering of Hall of Famers and other stars during the period should be enough to grab any collector's attention. I wonder if it's not the relative scarcity holding the card's popularity back, relatively speaking.

That Keeler is one of my favorite examples from the set thus far, along with the WaJo.

Are there any cards within the set that are considered more difficult to acquire?
