Question: Lou Gehrig Cards
Is there a story behind why there are so few Lou Gehrig cards issued after 1934? Other than exhibits or premiums they seem to all but stop. He's not in Diamond Stars, Play Ball, Batter Up, 1935 Goudey etc. Does anyone know why this is?

a few thoughts
His last full season was 1938. There really weren't a ton of sets issued in the years between 1935 and 1938. He was issued in:
1935...Schutter Johnson..R332 1935... Wheaties.. series 1 1936... Exhibits.. 4 on 1 1936...Goudey.. V355 WWG 1937 ...Exhibits.. 4 on 1 1938 ...Exhibits.. 4 on 1 1939...Exhibits Salutation So, he was on some issues (and you mentioned Exhibits), just not all of them. You would think he would have been on the others of the day too.

Thanks for the list Leon
That's a pretty small list for the premier player of the day! I was sort of wondering if he took some kind of stand against gum cards or wanted more money or???? I mean he was on almost every card in the 1934 Goudey set then, poof, practically gone from any major card issue. Seems kinda weird.

Well Lou objected to smoking and didn't want kids thinking that it was ok because his picture was on a card...oh, wait, I think I have the mixed up.
