William Heitman#106 Lajoie was printed up on a 25 card sheet. The other 24 cards on the sheet were the 1934 Goudey high numbers. The card also carried a 1934 copyright notice on its back. It seems that Goudey printed up the #106's in response to numerous complaints from, among others, Jefferson Burdick, about the lack of a #106 in the previous year's set. But interestingly, #106 is not in the style of either the 1933's or the 1934's. And Lajoie would be an anomaly in either set since the sets contain no players who had been out of baseball for so many years. The truth is that #106 is a 1934 Goudey one card set. And it is truly doubtful that any #106s ever saw the inside of a pack of gum.
