The part of the story that got me was that they also stole an uncut sheet of 25 Goudey Gum Company cards from 1934 that included a rare Nap Lajoie.
And then when the police got called about the theft:

"And with the NYPD on the way, the panicked thieves absconded, their spoils tucked into a backpack, to Gartland�s home, where�insert audible collector�s gasp�they cut up the sheet."

ARG!
