Default Question for Mr. Heitman re: renumbering 1933 Goudey cards

Posted By: JimB

I would not know how to explain the Spoher, but the Durocher could easily have changed #s after a proof run to make completing the set impossible, as we know Goudey did. I agree with Barry that we need some evidence stronger than a rumor heard thirty years ago. If these were produced as Mr. Heitman heard, then one would presume that there would be a lot more of them around now. They were produced, according to the rumor, but serious hobby figures, so their productions surely would have remained in the hobby over the years. The lack of more evidence and more examples makes me skeptical.
