Hal LewisThe 1914 Schalk card is probably too high for several reasons:
1) It is considered his FIRST card, so there is demand for it from rookie collectors.
2) He is a HOF'er, so there is demand for it from HOF collectors.
3) It is a 1914 CJ, so there is demand for it from the numerous people trying to collect that HARD TO FIND set.
and lastly:
4) It is a card that I wanted, so OF COURSE it would end up selling for 19 times its actual value. I am cursed.
