I don't have all of the 34 Goudey high number cards. Cuyler is one of the ones I lack. I don't think there's a shortage of his cards. I think that 2 factors tighten the supply. One, he's the only high number guy in the Hall. That is the major reason. Two, he was active in baseball after his career, coaching in the minors, winning a championship in the Southern Association, and coaching for the Cubs and Red Sox. I think to a lesser degree that adds to the number of folks who would have sought his cards.
So I think the 1934 Cuyler card sells for a premium above the other 1934 high number Goudeys... for those two reasons.
