Graded VG-EX 4 by PSA. Stake your claim to this classic 1933 Goudey #53 Babe Ruth gum card. When typically discovered, each of the four poses of "The Sultan of Swat" displays a combination of significant wear. Quite simply, "The Bambino" drove product sales and children expressed their admiration for the New York Yankees Hall of Fame hero by significantly handling their cardboard treasure. Fortunately, this example escaped such youthful hands as the canvas is entirely crease-free with evenly worn corners and relatively crisp edges. The bright yellow setting has retained its original sheen and the informative biographical back is problem-free. Although technically mid-grade, this "Colossus of Clout" ranks in the upper 23% of all similar examples judged by the authenticator.
