The 1938 Goudey set is as the author described, starts its numbering at 241 and advertises (in the second series) a total of 312 cards, so for whatever reason he feels the entire grouping is attributed to 1933. Just as incorrectly he claims the '34 Goudey set as having around 300 cards--where he gets this I do not know, and he neglects to mention the Chuck Klein footer on the last cards in the set. Oh well, i appreciate the effort.
