Ted ZanidakisThere is essentially no difference. As you noted, the poses are the same
and the data on the backs are identical. However, there is a subtle, but
discernable difference in the blue background color. I have always been
able to identify which card # is on the back by looking at the front of
these two cards. The #160 Gehrig consistently has a lighter and softer-
looking shade of Blue than the #92 card.
A possible explanation for this is that the higher numbered cards in the
1933 Goudey set are printed on higher quality cardboard than the lower
numbers (which are printed on a coarser, lower quality cardboard).
