For anyone who is an Expos collector (like me) that OPC card is in extremely high demand, which probably explains the high price. Staub is remembered in Montreal as the team’s first star and one of the most important players in Expos history, but there were only a few regular cards of him in an Expos uniform ever released. The 1971 (both Topps and OPC) are probably the best looking of those, and since the OPC is scarcer and 289 specifically has a different pose it is very much sought after by Expos fans.
