Offered for your consideration is a 1933 Goudey #149 Babe Ruth professionally graded SGC 60 EX. This fantastic exemplar is one of four different entries of Babe Ruth in the 1933 Goudey Baseball Set. Ruth, donned in the famous pinstripes of the New York Yankees, is depicted in his classic follow-through against a bright red background.

The obverse of this example presents very strongly for the technical grade and is highlighted by the strikingly bold colors, vivid registration and clear focus. Full, nicely centered borders, a tough find on this issue, only add to the eye appeal of this offering. The reverse is clean of stains and creases and the green text is bold. The Goudey issue affords an excellent value for Ruth collectors and this quality offering is no exception.
