Default 1932 US Caramel Babe Ruth

This is my first post to this site. I collected baseball cards through my late teens and stored them away until now. The Black Swamp Find peaked my curiosity a few years ago and has renewed my interest. I’m working towards securing a few, higher-value cards to hold onto for my kids.

I was looking through the Auction sites and started researching the 1932 US Caramel Babe Ruth. Based on the notes there and on PSACard.com, it looks like there are two of this card rated at NM-MT 8. The sales prices varied as follows:

$16.7K in 11/04
$22.7K in 8/12
$42.8K in 2013 (month not shown)
$35.9K in 11/13
$83.7K in 5/16
$52.8K in 2/18
$33.6 in 4/28

Any ideas why there has been such a large swing in prices on this card?
Does it make sense that there are just two of these cards being bought and resold regularly?
If there are two cards rated the same, does it make sense that they would have two very different prices?

Thx, Joe
