What surprises me is that the '52 Hoyt Willhelm rookie fetched "only" $25,000. Honestly, if I that sort of dough to throw around, I would've been willing to pay twice that. I mean, we're dealing with a unique example, a rookie card for a Hall of Famer, a Topps high number, and just a damn beautiful card (Wilhelm's sleepy eyes aside). What more can you ask for?
