Extremely happy to add this one. Some of you know I am working on a framed display of 100 cards, representing baseball's Top 100 baseball players between around 1930 and 1980. Have been stuck on 97/100 for a VERY long time.
99 and 100 will be Gehrig and Ruth, and it will probably be a few years before I can bite on those. But #98 was simply a card that's extremely hard to find in good shape (or even at all).
It was never my intention to buy one of the top ones ever graded, but it ended up working out that way. For those of you familiar with the 1936 World Wide Gum set, most of the photos are low quality or even bizarre (e.g., Luke Appling in a tux?). But this one struck me as fantastic, somewhat reminiscent of the 1976 Topps Johnny Bench.
So here you go! It would be hard for me to imagine a nicer one than this.
