Description
1933 Goudey Babe Ruth #181 PSA VG-EX 4. Babe Ruth's 1933 Goudey appearances stand among the most celebrated gum cards of the prewar era, and card #181 has long been a favorite for its introspective, almost candid portrait of the Yankees slugger late in his storied career. This issue from the 1933 Goudey set pictures Ruth with bat in hand, glancing back over his right shoulder, the classic artwork focusing tightly on his expression and presence rather than background detail. One of four different Ruth cards in the landmark Goudey checklist, number 181 remains a cornerstone piece for collectors building either a focused Ruth run or a flagship prewar baseball collection.Graded PSA VG-EX 4. A pleasant mid-grade example with faults but not enough to deter desirability.
