per Leon's request, my m101-5 Thorpe with a Famous & Barr back, For whatever reason, the Thorpe card seems to be very difficult to find. I only saw it a few times in the 80s at prices I was unwilling to pay. I got this one about 3 years ago from a kind board member. Since my return to the hobby in 2001, I have only seen one other m101-5 Thorpe, that was in a MAstro auction about the same time I purchased mine and it was grade SGC 40.

I'm willing to guess that for those working on the set, Thorpe has to be on more wantlists than any other card. Ruth may be more expensive, but you see at one in every major auction.
