The actual fact is that at the time Ruth and Gehrig absolutely HATED each other and there was no way Babe was going to have a card in a "Lou Gehrig" set. What I can't figure out is why Gehrig didn't have a '35 Goudey or beyond. Unless he had bad dealings with Goudey over his '34 set or signed an exclusive elsewhere it just doesn't make sense.
