# 2 Babe Ruth - 1933 Goudey Sport Kings |
This set includes only three baseball cards: #1 Ty Cobb, #2 Babe Ruth, and #42 Carl Hubbell. We previously blogged about the beautiful # 2 Babe Ruth SGC 8.5 NM/MT+ we have for sale at DeansCards.com. This card of the sultan of swat is perhaps one of the most attractive cards from the 1933 Goudey Sports Kings set, and maybe one of the Bambino's best looking cards of the 1930's.
Football players Red Grange, Jim Thorpe, and Knute Rockne are also featured cards. The black silhouettes that illustrate the bottom border of the football cards are cool. They show scenes such as that of a player diving for a touchdown, or a big pileup of tacklers with the runner doing his best to evade the scrum.
