Other than new stuff I don't recall ever seeing an expensive card lose that much. Ups and downs yes, but dropping about 70%?
Maybe the OJ rookie? But that's nowhere near the same league as a Goudey Ruth.
What I have seen with all expensive collectibles is that when things get bad, or the hobby gets less popular and prices drop the people who could afford to spend big (both 38K and 132K are unaffordale to me) can also afford to hold onto the stuff and wait. In some cases, that stuff actually does better during hard times.
