Yes, its a good time. There is a PSA 3 currently in auction and its at 44k, with 17 days left.

Indeed, this rather scarce Gehrig gem virtually seemed to "slip through the cracks" until it finally made some extremely loud noise when an SGC 30/2 example fetched approximately $36K in an auction earlier this year. It now certainly appears that the Gehrig 1925 Exhibit rookie issue is ready to place its indelible mark on the hobby along with other inaugural issues, justifying why ##### is proud to present a superb PSA 3 example of this highly coveted keepsake. Atypical versus other star rookie cards, this inaugural Gehrig marvel is one of only 49 TOTAL specimens FOR ALL GRADES listed on the COMBINED PSA & SGC census reports; a truly sparse number compared to other high-end rookie cards. As an example, there are 32 PSA 8 1952 Topps Mantles that are now exceeding $500,000 in value, and one would expect that Lou Gehrig's rookie card in ANY GRADE should sell for at least "half" that amount considering there are only 17 additional examples for all grades versus the '52 Topps PSA 8 Mantle subject.
