Description

1933 Goudey Napoleon Lajoie #106 PSA EX-MT 6. Only the famous Honus Wagner card of the T206 set could claim a more vast divide among card collectors between those who fervently desire a specimen and those that actually own one. Both the T206 Wagner and the 1933 Goudey Lajoie are so exceedingly scarce that listed full set prices for the issues fail to take them into consideration, beaten into submission by the knowledge that the cards just can't be found.

Thanks must be offered to one young Depression-era set builder, who would not be deterred by the fact that card number 106 was not available in standard wax packs. It took a letter, mailed to the Boston offices of Goudey Gum Co., to earn this toughest of all cards from this Big Three set, accounting for their terrific rarity today. It finds itself firmly planted in the upper half of the ninety-three examples submitted to PSA at the time of this writing, a card with a virtually perfect image area that provides the appearance of an even finer specimen. Certainly one of the cleanest EX-MT examples we've encountered.
