1933 Goudey Baseball Cards: Ruth, Gehrig, Foxx, & Ott - Are these Legit or Fakes?

[zljones]

Being an owner of some 33 goudeys they look completely legit to me when I compare what I own.

Agreed. Look fine.

First, thank you to all for your solid opinions. I value you them greatly and they has enlightened me. I am more of a modern collector, so when I stumbled upon these pre-war cards, I really didn't know what I was looking at. Anyway, I am going to move forward with a deal to obtain the cards. Hopefully I can get the right price. The seller seems fair and understands the condition of the cards shall drive the price, not some “book value.”

Second, I have a follow up question. As a modern collector, I have used PSA and BGS for my card grading needs. I went to PSA a lot because I used to get great rates for bulk orders (1000+ cards submitted at once for grading = $4 per card). For BGS, I went to them anytime I needed a thick relic card graded because I hate the PSA oversized holders for large relics. Anyway, I have heard SGC may be the best company for grading when dealing with pre-war cards in order to max long term value. So…

-What are your opinions here on this issue?

-What company would you recommend for grading if the goal is to max out long term value?

Thank you again.

And another follow on question, what would these things graded out as in your opinion? How would SGC or PSA tread the ruth card with the off center printing on the back? Meatloaf

Very nice collector grade cards

I concur, these seem to be very nice looking for the grade, lower end collector grade cards.
