Graded 70 EX+ 5.5 by SGC. Exquisite 1933 Goudey Baseball #92 Lou Gehrig featuring the pinstriped hero striding into an unfortunate pitch. Those seeking a high quality specimen of the "Iron Horse" from his playing days need to look no further than this properly centered gum card with barely touched corners and crisp edges. The intricately detailed illustration of the Hall of Fame slugger is perfectly contrasted against its light blue setting. Additionally, the green text reverse confirming Gehrig's status as "one of the biggest siege guns of the New York Yankees" is problem-free. Of the 427 similar copies evaluated by SGC, only 38 (12%) meet or exceed the grading level. How about that for a Hall of Fame worthy artifact?!
