Default Senior moment or just

plain numbnuts? I'm down to four cards to complete my English only backs 1933 World Wide Gum set (already finished the French/English backs). I see a Ted Lyons (#7) on Ebay and wait to snipe last night. I WIN!!! When I look at the auction this morning, it dawns on me, THIS WAS A 33 GOUDEY LYONS.
It had been listed with a bunch of 33 WWG's and apparently the rose colored glasses were on really tight.

Now I turn 66 tomorrow so do I chalk this up to senioritis or just plain ole numbnuts? Anybody else ever pull this one?
