Which Hank Greenberg? ‘34 Goudey, ‘35 Diamond Stars or another?
I know we’ve done this one before (see earlier thread) but I could use more input because I just can’t decide which is my “one and only” Hammerin’ Hank Greenberg to add to my collection.
My 2 finalists are his iconic ‘34 Goudey (of course) and his colorful and art nouveau 1935 Diamond Star. I know there are some big Hank fans and collectors here - any strong feelings on this? I do prefer color in my cards over his many black and white issues… I wish “both!” were an option! Thx for kicking this old topic up again for discussion… Greenberg is SUCH a legend of the game. Can’t wait to add him to my collection. Jeff

Love and have them both...but I have to go with the 34 Goudey...just something about it. Obviously, can't go wrong with either though. Thankfully, I bought both a couple of years before the pandemic!
Best of luck with your search!

I am probably one of the few who does not like Diamond Stars. So, its Goudey for me.

Cant go wrong here, but i would go diamond star. Always loved that card, first vintage card I bought so it has sentimental value. Bought a few more along the way, just attracted to it. Have tried to add others but they are moving up in price quite a lot.
