Default Help Requested | 1933 Goudey #92 Lou Gehrig

Posted By: Red

The font on the label looks too large. The front of the Gehrig looks odd and too white. The back while it has the red transfer you feel comfortable with looks a little odd. This would be a good card to send off to Kevin to have a look at.

On the label the vertical line of the L in Lou Gehrig is lined up directly below the vertical line in the 1 in 1933. Looking at PSA labels of various types and fonts an L is normally alligned to the left of the 1 in the date. The Lou Gehrig in the odd looking label is nearly as large as 1933 Goudey. On normal looking labels the Lou Gehrig looks more narrow because of the alignment. There's a fancy name in printing for the space a 1 or L would take up in normal printing like a PSA label uses, but if you made a label with Photoshop the Lou Gehrig would go where you put it.
