The last series consisted of 12 cards each from the two 1933 pennant winners (Giants and Senators), with text on the back reflecting their World Series performance, and came out at the end of October. This last series did not include the last 24 numbers, as you might expect; as was often done in those days, Goudey did not number the cards in each series consecutively, so the Giants in the last series were #125-127 and 232-240, and the Senators were #107-114 and 121-124.

Edited to add: I see that pro9 added the info about the card numbers while I was writing my reply.

Thank you for posting that link. I have been looking for that and could not find it.
