I thought so too, that is why I won it. In fact, I was trying to figure out how much my max bid was going to be and around 11:29pm last night, I was actually getting mad that the other bidders were waiting until the last minute to place their next bid. I didn't want to stay up too late going back and forth on it.

Not only is Wright a tough HOF'er to get in the first place, the 1890 card only comes with one of his three poses and it is a lot easier to find the non-NL version of that card. So yes, that is a very tough card to find
