It's surprising to me that Hippo Vaughn isn't being mentioned as a tough card in the set. Not that long ago it was generally considered to be the toughest to find, with Coombs a close 2nd.
I am still chasing a red Lajoie. It is amazing how tough that card is. I once had one in a PSA 3 holder but it was labeled an E93 Lajoie, presumably because the E93 Lajoie is not that tough to find and the E93 Lajoie has a reddish/purplish background with the same picture. The red Lajoie is a fire engine red and if you compare the two it is easy to see the difference. I keep checking every E93 Lajoie on ebay to see if there has been another labeling mistake but haven't found one. BTW, I crossed the Lajoie over to an SGC 40 but their first attempt at labeling had it as an E93 also! It is now in the possession of a board member as an E98 Lajoie correctly and I often regret that sale more than any other card I've sold...
