Love the pics I’m seeing. In my mind this is the second best set of the 1930s behind only 1933 Goudey. Lack of Ruth/Gehrig doesn’t bother me at all.

Something that might be of interest to casual collectors who haven’t studied the set in detail. Along with the stat/bio updates on the backs of cards repeated from one year to another, there are six players who have “front” variations.

The first five simply reflect players who changed teams from one year to the next. The final one is not a true variation since the card numbers differ: low number 1935 Berger #25 vs high number 1936 Berger #108. Here “Braves” is removed to reflect the renaming of the team as the Bees.
