I can hear it calling you John.

goose3 · January 10, 2009 5:48AM

It might be whispering but I just told Larry to zip it!

16,769 with the 17.5% juice right now!! Holey Moley!

I always wanted one of these.

WAY out of my league.

I'll have to wait on a fake

The description hints that these cards were sent out with an apology letter from Goudey. Do any of those letters still exist?

WinPitcher · January 10, 2009 7:50AM

Wow very nice mid grade example. I wonder what this card would have brought during the mid 80's boon?

5k at the time?

I understand that auction house descriptions are usually over the top, but using the word "myriad" twice in one description seems a bit much to me.

I've been collecting that set for many years and have never seen one.

if i win the lotto this card is soooo mine...

BassPro77 · January 10, 2009 9:18AM

to bad, i just bought a new truck in oct. unless he has a 50 year payment plan, out of my league.

Griffins · January 10, 2009 9:43AM

I was forwarded a scan of the letter from Goudey a few years ago. I'll see if I can dig it up.

Anthony never disappoints when it comes to rare items.

<< <i>I was forwarded a scan of the letter from Goudey a few years ago. I'll see if I can dig it up. >>

Now a real letter would be quite a cool item to have alongside old Nap! I bet the Lajoie card is plentiful compared to a letter.

Griffins · January 11, 2009 12:32PM

Can't locate the scan. I know there was one the last few years in Mastro or REA, couldn't see it in a REA search so it must be Mastro.

John, I agree. I find that the companion pieces for a set are often rarer and a lot more interesting than the issue itself.

Was he named after that famous general of the French Revolution, Larry Bonaparte?

<< <i>Was he named after that famous general of the French Revolution, Larry Bonaparte? >>

i have often wonderd the exact same thing...

goose3 · January 20, 2009 7:11AM

Holy Crap!

goose3 · January 24, 2009 7:48PM

Unbelievable.

JackWESQ · January 24, 2009 8:19PM

Makes you wonder what this would go for ...

mickeymantle24 · January 24, 2009 10:42PM

WOW that is a beauty!

Stingray · January 24, 2009 11:03PM

How many of these exist??

jdmi32 · January 25, 2009 1:00AM

Or how about this beauty on auction at this time at SCP? Bidding's currently at a little over 100k and still hasn't hit the reserve. I could only dream of ever owning such a card.

edit to add: PSA has already reviewed this card and has agreed to cross it over if the new owner desires.

goose3 · February 13, 2009 1:06AM

well it ended at $29,711.05.

it was at that for 10 or 12 days I think.

Crazy money.

julen23 · February 13, 2009 1:23AM

you could buy a wnba franchise for that kind of grip.
