For me, it’s all about my preconceived notion of what a ‘baseball card’ truly is and that really comes down to distribution method.
It’s silly, but I prize Goudey cards because they are ‘bubble gum’ cards. Plain and simple. Kashins, premium “photos”, even exhibits don’t exude American charm to me as much as a bubble gum card. And if I’m going to pay a few thousand dollars for a card of Babe Ruth, it has to fit my mental image of what a classic piece of Americana truly is. And to me, that’s a bubble gum card. Don’t know if I’m in the majority or minority with that view point...but I’ll bet I’m not the only collector who feels that way.
