What about the W590 Gehrig? That's 1925, too.

I thought those were issued over a period of years and you couldn't tell which? Like through 1931 maybe? Is that wrong?

That is correct and as I recall the 1925 sheets do not have Gehrig on them.

Looking back
Quote:
(listed as Right Fielder, thus predating the c. 1928 update that has him as Former Right Fielder), suggesting he was part of the original 1925 issue. If so, most W590 Gehrigs we see today would be from the 1925 set (which might have been sold through 1928, of course) since the revised W590s range from scarce (1928-29) to rare (1931). There is much discussion of font changes on the 1928-29 and 1931 issues, but this does not necessarily apply to the cards that were not revised. |

I recall that thread was very informative.

Here's Gehrig's 3rd 1925 "rookie card" after the Exhibits and the w590. The 1925 Universal Toy Yankees team card.

That's super cool. I've never seen an uncut card of those. Wow. Nice. Let me know when you are selling.

Great item, Gary, and super scarce. If anyone has the Washington Senators team card from this set, I'm your buyer - just name your price!

OK now I am confused: is Gehrig on the sheet as a single or only as part of the team card?
