Would Cobb & Jackson Have Made T207's The Best T Set?

Add Ruth and Gehrig to the Diamond Stars set, and I think it draws a lot closer to 1933 Goudey.

Can't think of a better card.

4 Ruths in Goudey, it's still not close.

I think if Diamond Stars had both Ruth and Gehrig, it would top the 1934 Goudey set in demand, but still would lag behind the 1933 Goudey in popularity, just because of 1933's larger set size and overall classic art, versus the Diamond Stars acquired taste Art Deco stylings.

I like the T207s, though I'm a fan of Bela Lugosi movies.

I agree with this. Even though I love the art on the Diamond Stars, 33 Goudey would be hard to surpass, even if it only had 1 Ruth. Just a beautiful set!
