1933 Goudey Ruth's
Soliciting opinions here: which of the 1933 Goudey Ruth's is the most iconic pose? I want to acquire my first Ruth, and I am having trouble deciding which card to get.
Also, what is the difference between World Wide Gum and Goudey? Thanks in advance for any input and opinions. -Phil |

I've always thought the full-body action shot is by far the most iconic pose, but I'm sure plenty of people will disagree. And I think World Wide Gum is just Canadian Goudey- these are more scarce

Channeling the SAT test:
Topps : O-Pee-Chee :: Goudey : World Wide Gum

I will have to consider which pose I like best.
And the WWG just aren't nearly as widely collected hence the valuations.

The color and pose of #181 has been my favorite since I was about 13 years old , almost 30 years ago!

Hey Phil:
The yellow 53 generally carries the highest price point so, all things being equal, that could a be way of measuring which is most iconic. That said, I think it comes down to personal preference on what you love to look at most. Many here like the 144, even though that was double printed, and by rarity standards, should cost least. But I think the demand for that image increases its status, despite the quantity available. WWG was the Canadian version of Goudey. There are less of these in the pop reports, but the price does not follow their scarcity. They often cost less than their American counterparts, and in my opinion, represent a decent value, relatively speaking. You just have to be OK with French writing on the back.
