(LOT 460)
1933 Goudey #92 Lou Gehrig PSA 4 VG-EX

MID-GRADE GEHRIG!!! Presented here is a stellar 1933 Goudey #92 Lou Gehrig PSA 5 specimen that stands as one of the Iron Horse's most coveted cardboard keepsakes. Issued one year before Gehrig would capture the American League Triple Crown, the 1933 campaign would see Lou clout 32 round-trippers, knock in 140 runs and post an outstanding .334 batting average. Donning his Yankee home pinstripes, the classic Charles Conlon batting image stands as the perfect symbol of Gehrig's unparalleled strength as he braces himself to wallop another horsehide sphere towards the furthest confines of the stadium's grandstands. No glaring surface flaws are evident to the naked eye, with even corner wear and border toning preventing a higher assessment. In our Dr. Newman 2021 auction, it's no secret that a PSA 8 #92 Gehrig sold for an absolutely earth-shattering $303K record price that nearly quadrupled the previous $84K pinnacle mark, more than justifying the current Goudey Gehrig pricing escalation!

MIN BID $1,500
