If Goudey was going to do retired players like Lajoie, Speaker and Collins, I would have like to seen cards of Harry Heilmann, George Sisler and Grover Cleveland Alexander. These were legends with few card choices. Heilmann played in 1932, Sisler and Alexander were last in the majors in 1930 but still active in the minors. Also as others have mentioned, rookies Luke Appling, Joe Medwick and Hank Greenberg. Appling having played 2+ seasons prior to the 1933 season. One can understand the reasons they weren't in the set, but they were still omissions.
