1933 Goudey #234 Signed "King" Carl Hubbell PSA 1 Card Grade/PSA 9 MINT Auto Grade
Hall of Famer "King" Carl Hubbell is one of the greatest southpaws to ever toe the rubber, with the "screwball artist" amassing 253 victories over his spectacular 16-year career with the New York Giants. The "Meal Ticket" is the only pitcher to ever capture two MVP awards during a peacetime period (Hal Newhouser won two MVPs during WWII), and still owns the MLB record of winning 24 consecutive games over two seasons. Owner of five consecutive 20-win seasons from 1933 thru 1937, one of his most prized cardboard issues is the 1933 Goudey #234 half-portrait subject that is offered with an absolutely spectacular black fountain pen "Carl Hubbell" autograph. Graded a PSA "9 MINT", the extremely bold signature is affixed across Hubbell's bright white uniform, with the rounded corners and series of horizontal creases affixed beneath the autograph not negating the splendid aesthetics of the critical central image. Synonymous to this amazing scripted Goudey, "King Carl's" most incredible accomplishment will forever be his performance in the 1934 All-Star game when he fanned Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Jimmie Foxx, Al Simmons and Joe Cronin in succession. It should be noted that a previous example fetched nearly $6K in August 2020, a bona fide testament for a signed Hubbell Goudey's immense desirability!
