Sam, you are a funny dude. Yes, obviously that was the TOTAL of hammer price plus BP. I still think that is cheap for a really nice image of Ruth, in high grade (only 3 higher on psa), of a relatively tough playing-era ruth. There are a total of 64 graded between psa and sgc. In contrast, there are probably 64 Goudey Ruths currently on eBay. There aren't many nice 20's Ruth cards, but this throwing pose is a is as nice as there is in a 20's Ruth. I will never understand what makes some cards ultra expensive, while other nicer, more rare ones remain reasonably priced and less coveted. For the record, I only compared to Goudey in population, not in importance or reason for value.
