1914 Babe Ruth Rookie Would Be More Valuable Than T206 Wagner In Good Condition?

http://www.forbes.com/2009/03/23/bas...all-cards.html

One Wagner rookie card miraculously survived the last century in near-mint condition. Dubbed the "Gretzky Wagner" after it was purchased by the hockey star for $451,000 in 1991, the card sold for $500,000 in 1995, then for $640,000 in 1996, $1.265 million in 2000, $2.35 million in March of 2007 and $2.8 million in September of 2008. Fleischer estimates it would bring $3 million today--and that a comparable Ruth rookie would go for $3 million to $5 million

Interesting... just wanted to let you guys know that. Does anyone know how many copies of the 1914 babe ruth rookie?
