This Bodie E122 has never been graded and does not appear to have sales records. Maybe someone can weigh in on this. Doesn't seem it should be that scarce.

I have always just dang liked this card - Orange Border Lajoie.

a Ruth cloth swatch from his playing days - much thicker and higher quality cloth than a B18

This is probably my all time favorite

Although reasonably scarce, the E122 Am. Caramel cards are downright rare in comparison to the nearly-identical-looking E121 Am. Caramel (both series) cards. I have no idea why this is.

Duffy Lewis was washed up when he got to Washington in 1921 just in time to make this Series of 80. Before that, however, he earned a place in the Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame.

He was the left third of the "Million-Dollar Outfield" (with Speaker and Hooper) that led Boston to three World Series championships between 1912 and 1916.

Back then (actually until 1934), Fenway park featured a 10-foot mound that formed an incline leading up to what we now call "The Green Monster". Lewis became so adroit at playing the incline, it became known as "Duffy's Cliff".

Nice M116s, Sean - was Mr. Brown issued with all 3 different backs? I wish WaJo came with all 3 backs and also with a blue background.
