Question about 1933 Goudey proofs/renumbering
 

I am trying to compile a full list of 1933 Goudey cards for which proofs (or whatever name you prefer) with different numbering exists.

Here is my list so far.

Walberg 145 (128)
Durocher 147 (106)
Spohrer 161 (124)
Sewell 163 (123)

Thanks in advance if you can add to this list.

Thanks Jason, I forgot all about proofs being out there with different numbers. I don't have any additional number changes, but can provide some interesting info.

Here is my list of the sheets the normal cards were printed on (note they are all from Sheet 6), and then the proof card numbers, what sheet in regular production these numbers were eventually printed on, and the player that was issued for that number:

Sheet 6 145 Walberg / Sheet 9 (128) - Chuck Klein
Sheet 6 147 Durocher / Printed with 1934 Goudey (106) - Napolean Lajoie
Sheet 6 161 Spohrer / Sheet 10 (124) - Earl Whitehill
Sheet 6 163 Sewell / Sheet 10 (123) - Jack Russell

I always liked the copyright/patent cards. These are from my first collection and now reside in someone else's. This one is only number 44, and not any other, but it's cool to see the different varieties together. Wish I could help with more clues. Good luck in the hunt.

I like the Bottomley proof card. Here is the original Conlon photograph on which it is based.

Fantastic set of Bottomley cards, Leon! Am guessing many of you have seen the progressive proof sheets from an older Heritage Auction.

Am curious if anyone can attempt a "for dummies" explanation of how these cards were printed and how the various different color sheets fit in.
