1933 Goudey Baseball Cards
Checklist & Values

1933 Goudey baseball cards were issued during the worst part of The Great Depression. The set ended up at 240 cards (239 printed in 1933 and one in 1934). In an effort to attract collectors, several of the games top players were honored with multiple cards including "The Great Bambino" who appeared on 4 different cards.
The Babe was once asked why he made more than the President of the United States, the Babe answered simply: "I had a better year than he did."
The Elusive Nap Lajoie
One of the most important facts regarding the 1933 Goudey set was their infamous marketing ploy. Goudey took "marketing" to a whole new level to keep people buying packs by never issuing card #106. Collectors wrote the Goudey Card Company complaining. They were rewarded with Goudey sending them the un-issued card #106 (Nap Lajoie) in 1934.

1969 Topps Football Four-in-One

Thru the late 1960's, early 1970's, Topps continued to try new things as test issues and inserts. 1969 was no different and along came the 1969 Topps Football Four-in-Ones. Each card was a perforated panel of (4) mini-cards. Special mini-card albums were also issued as inserts to hold the mini-cards. Each album had room for a complete team set of (10) mini-cards.
There was one variation in which print color and background on Bill Triplett's and Charlie Johnson's mini-cards varied. Interestingly, a few of the players on these mini-cards never appeared on their own regular card .

1964/1965 Challenge the Yankees

Baseball Board Game

"Challenge The Yankees" was a popular baseball board game from Hasbro in 1964 & 1965.
(50) player cards: (25) Yankees and (25) All-Star opponents, made the game a treasure trove for collectors. 4" x 5-1/2" cards came in blank-backed perforated sheets on a fairly fragile paper stock.

The game also had dice, baseball diamond game board, play cards, pegs to move around bases, strategy cards...
1964/1965 cards are nearly the same with a stat line the only way to distinguish. A couple cards even have same stats so no way to tell them apart.
