I was thinking the same thing when I was looking for Sammy Baugh cards and I came across this one. I figured who would have held onto one of these back in the day considering it's not really a "regular" card. So like anyone else would do, I checked the pop reports. There are 14 thru PSA and 2 thru SGC like mine which are both SGC 60 (5). The next toughie is Baugh's 1950 Bread for Health which was distributed in loaves of bread. Now that one should be tougher IMHO but I have found plenty of those except for the Baugh on eBay. In short there are quite a few Dixie Lids on eBay in various years, even a Nagurski, so take a gander.
