Collection of 55 cards from the 1933 Goudey issue, consigned from the collection of a longtime hobbyist who is, primarily, an autograph collector.  These Goudeys became part of his collection at some point as we all occasionally wind up with interesting pieces that don't fit the core of our collection.  Average grade appears G-VG, though many (marked below with an asterisk) are technically lower due to ink writing along the top edge of the reverse, likely period writing, often indicating the player's batting average for the 1933 season.

The collection includes the following cards: #25, 26*, 39* (writing on front and back), 43, 59, 61, 69* (signature stamp across the front), 70, 72, 78, 91, 93, 96, 100*, 101*, 113, 116, 118, 122, 130, 131*, 132, 136, 139, 141 (writing on front which may be a signature), 145, 150, 152, 155*, 156*, 157, 159, 161*, 162, 166*, 169*, 171, 172, 178, 184*, 190, 192, 195, 196, 198*, 200, 203*, 212*, 218*, 221, 225*, 226*, 235, 236, 237, and 239.  Given the nature of the collection, it is surprisingly short on star power, and yet still represents a nice percentage of a complete 1933 Goudey set.  55 cards total.
