I've been collecting for a very long time and it's always been the 33 Goudey 144. I didn't even know about the 21 until I read this post. There are so many random 20's cards of Ruth, but the Goudey is seared into peoples minds much like the 52 Mantle, 79 Gretzky, 86 Jordan, 89 Griffey, etc. I only bought mine because I love the card and the image, it's iconic and beautiful and my personal grail card. Best of luck on your journey. Trust your gut.
