I was really losing steam on my quest to complete my '33 Goudey set with about 70 cards to go when, much to my surprise and happiness, the REA February auction appeared with a set break right in my grade range that included a number of cards with great eye appeal. Here is my take fresh out of the box from REA today (who are world class and a pleasure to deal with). I may not get the Ruths for a while (or ever), but I feel well on my way now.

Thanks! In truth they aren't all beauties, some were good enoughs, but I was really happy with the results overall. My goal for now is 233 cards, 240 minus the 4 Ruths, the duplicate Gehrig and Foxx cards, and #106. I need just 28 more.

Nice pickups, SD! The Hack Wilson is absolutely one of my favorite cards in the entire set. Love that pose!

Seven years ago, you could’ve potentially owned the original photo from which the card was based. The anticipated price was just $200.00 to $400.00 - a bargain today and even in 2014. Wonder what the actual hammer was? https://www.sportscollectorsdaily.co...udey-card-bid/ |

I was more stoked on The HunchHack then the 35. Something about Babe on the Braves makes me sad.

It has survived time. I also don't think the scans violate copyright. Besides it is free advertising for the seller. Twice over.

Matt, nice Ruth!! I love the colors on it.
I was happy to pick this up in Heritage this past weekend. When I first saw it I knew right away that I had to have it |

Great pickup! I felt the same way and kept going back and forth with my wife on how much I was allowed to bid on it. She ultimately left it at "I trust you" which we all know the true meaning of and why you got it.

Something about a raw Goudey. The real way a card should feel.
