1933 Goudey #188 Rogers Hornsby PSA 8 NM-MT – Only 4 PSA Examples Graded Higher!
THE RAJAH!!! Hornsby's stature as one of baseball's greatest all-time hitters stems from his unfathomable five-year run from 1921 through 1925 that produced three .400+ batting seasons and a beyond amazing .401 batting average over that historic span. Ultimately ending his career with the second highest lifetime batting average (.358) only behind Cobb, this PSA 8 NM-MT 1933 Goudey #188 offering certainly resides as one of his finest preserved cards, only bested by four PSA examples. Revealing a classic St. Louis Browns managerial pose, the well-centered image only slightly favors the lower edge, with the surfaces and corners exhibiting a majority of their original factory-issued attributes. Bright colors, blisteringly sharp corner tips, and outstanding resolution are the final exclamation points for one of the landmark 1933 Goudey set's most coveted subjects!
