I heard a rumor that Topps only produced enough of these to give one to every honest politician
I looked at completed auctions before Christmas and not even the sellers selling near master sets had any Marathing ludlows in their lots. At the time I also remember a seller who sold his monthly extra singles in his " U PICK" auction had many multiples of all the other 4 weekly ludlows for sale when he first listed, yet no #9s
Either there are only a handful of these around or none were produced at all.
