I collected this set in the past, and basically completed it (except for the Lajoie, of course) in mid to high grade except for the Ruth's which I had in low grade. Then I sold it off to focus on other stuff.
What I thought I saw when I was collecting was that cards 1-5 were tough in higher grade, and I especially had a tough time finding the #4 Schuble in nice condition. #12 Pipgras has also been notoriously hard to find in higher grade.
Other comments, I thought the low numbers went up to #53 for Ruth? Also, #5 Babe Herman is not a HOFer. I was confused about that for the longest time also. He's confused with #227 Billy Herman, who is a HOFer, and both of them played on the Cubs.
