Default I beg to differ with exception

The Goudeys are THE most sought after (read - highest demand) Ruth cards and will likely remain so - heck, I would call the #144 the "poster card" of prewar gum cards. There are only ~2,000 graded (PSA and SGC combined) examples of the #144 (+ I would guess considerably less than that # raw) , which while intially may sound like a big number - pales in comparison to the demand the card has. The 3 other Goudey's have lower populations. That said, I do agree that some of his earlier issues have considerably lower populations (and at least for now considerably lower demand). To me the head scratcher is Ruth's Exhibit cards (The '21 topping the list) and Exhibit cards in general - The 25 Gehrig Exhibit gets a "demand pass" and somehow shatters the Exhibit card price mold while all the rest of the Exhibit cards are ignored? Why?

I am actively buying and selling vintage sports cards graded and raw. Feedback as a buyer: https://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=297262

I am accepting select private consignments of quality vintage cards (raw or graded) and collecting "want" lists for higher end ($1K+) vintage cards.
