1933 Goudey Lou Gehrig Real or Fake?
5 Attachment(s)
Hello all,
I'm new to collecting Pre WWII cards. I fear I may not have done enough homework on this purchase. The seller says it's authentic, and will give me a refund if not which is nice. I was going to send to PSA, but wanted to get your opinions as I think it might be a waste to send in. My concerns are... 1) The width is slightly larger than 2 3/8". Not sure if some were cut slightly larger. 2) The bat is extending too much over the border. Just a slight faint yellow really over the border. 3) The color of his skin seems slightly reddish Attached are pics. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks |
It is real and will probably grade a 1. Since it's a higher end card it's still worth slabbing if you want to, imo.

It does look good but to piggy back Leon it is a low grade. As far as the picture itself it just might be the view of the picture that looks off. Would be a great pick up since a lot of people are scared buying Gehrig cards raw.

I agree that it would get graded as a one but the flaws, in my opinion, do not take away from the eye appeal. That would look great slabbed. Nice score!:)

I would trust a guy who knows what year the card is.:D I do agree with the conclusion though |

FWIW - I was looking at that card as a possible purchase, too, without any doubt as to its authenticity.

Thank you very much everyone!
Yeah, I bought it on ebay a couple months ago. |
