Question about 1933 Goudey Lou Gehrig Cards
Posted By: Josh Adams
I have been thinking about this for a while. Gehrig, like many others in the '33 Goudey set, have more than one card, i.e. Ruth (4), Ott (2), Critz (2), Hubbell (2) come to mind. I understand the reasons for duplicates at the end of the set. |

Question about 1933 Goudey Lou Gehrig Cards
Posted By: davidcycleback
With 1950s-70s Topps baseball cards, double prints often resulted where the card was put in more than one place on the sheet. This was often as another card was removed or there was an extra space and they needed something to go there. The number of different cards and the size of the sheet often don't match perfectly, meaning a card can be represented more than once on the sheet. If you look at a uncut Topps sheet, you will often a card represented more than once. Price guide folks often ask to see vintage uncut sheets so they can determine what's been double printed. So, the reason for using a second Gehrig or a second Foxx may have been to fill holes on the sheet. If they needed a duplicate on the sheet, I'm sure Goudey figured it best to dupe a superstar. |

I ordinarily would say the same thing, David, however in these cases the cards were given separate card numbers in the set. Normally when cards are double-printed on a sheet, the backs are not changed. |
