1933 Goudey Gum Co. Baseball

[jingram058]

Since I can't get to my Goudey cards just now, I found this on line and thought it appropriate for a 1933 Goudey thread.

This display hangs behind the desk in my home office. I'm now down to three Ruth's to complete my Goudey HOF subset.

I've never owned any '33 Goudeys.....Have owned different pre war cards over the years.....If I ever go back and collect this era, the '33s would be the first set / cards to tackle.....beautiful cards....and beautiful pics you guy have posted!

I agree about the Goslin, and yours is amazing

Ted,

THANK YOU for that sheet #10 information, about Washington and the Giants. I don't have all of those cards, but I do have several of them. I hope to dig them out read the backs, to see if they reference any information that couldn't have been known before the season started.

Has this been common knowledge and I've had my head in the sand? This is the first I've heard of it. You're a walking encyclopedia!

I totally agree, and I have the full set minus 1 card. The colors on that Goslin pop!

1933 Goudey has so many cards of great Players.

Set has 240 cards, and I think 64 of those are of Hall of Famers including the duplicate images of Foxx and Gehrig and the multiple images of Ruth, Manush, Cronin and others.

There are 49 different Hall of Famers in total I believe, including the retired Lajoie, Collins and Speaker, which is way more than the T206 set has.

One thing I have wondered is why the World Wide Gum issue, which is rarer than they Goudy does not sell for as much.

I will venture to guess that the demand for those WWG cards is lower due to the dual language write-ups on the backs, and most collectors only want to see
English without the additional French. Just my guess.

I have a bunch of '34s too, but here are my '33s . . .

Kind of an outlier to my set...from a condition standpoint...don't see one this nice too often.
