Default '33 WWG Gehrig on ebay

Posted By: Elliot

I think we are all in agreement now:

--WWG and Goudey were owned by the same people from 1933 until sometime in the early '40's.

--WWG's were printed in a different place than Goudeys, mostly in printing plants not owned by WWG or Goudey.

--A large minority percentage of Goudeys and WWG's have bleed-through, in about equal proportion.

--Bleed-through normally will indicate authenticity, as nobody is aware of reprints with the bleed-through effect.

--Not having bleed-through does not mean the card is not authentic.

--Bleed-through was caused by wet sheets being stacked one on top of the other. br />

Does anybody have a card with bleed-through on the reverse that is different from the obverse?
