Thanks for the compliment, Erik. The signed Gehrig card is definitely a crowd pleaser; it's probably the best item in my collection and I'd be loathe to part with it. When I kick the bucket it will probably find its way back into the hobby. Haven't worked out the details yet. There is one other autographed Goudey Gehrig portrait card that I know of. It was purchased by a fellow who used to post here regularly but whom I haven't seen around for years. I found this scan in a 2009 thread after scouring the N54 archives. It's sorta o/c and the back had some not-so-nice paper loss but the signature is exquisite. The '33 #92 Batting (12485177) with the pencil autograph used to be mine but I let Al C have it for his first LOTG auction a while back figuring that having two signed Gehrig cards was just being greedy and bad cardboard karma.
