The Hoag has 144 copies, #94 rolfe 194 and #90 cuyler 184 graded copies (3 of the more expensive higher #'s) compared to 844 graded copies of #37 gehrig, THE most expensive card.

Id think the more expensive cards would have a higher percentage graded. This gets into Zachs post from the other day, but I wonder what percentage of Lajoies are graded. It seems that 50-60% of my high #'ed 1934 goudeys, and thats 2 sets plus some triples and quads, were slabbed, a higher percentage than numbers 1-72. My point is there are a lot more Lajoies than I thought and the price of the card poorly resembles its "rarity" (I know, another thread). Its "cool" factor is the primary force behind the price. I guess Im just behind the curve here...

I think the lajoie card is rare than the other high number. Yes probably the same number was printed but not same number distributed. All high number 34 goudey was distributed in pack. I think many printed lajoie was never distributed and perhaps destroyed by goudey when all complaint customers where satisfied with her 33 lajoie
