Comments: In September,
2002 I purchased a PSA 5 1933 Goudey portrait card for Goose Goslin.
It replaced a PSA 4 example. In December, 2003 it was upgraded to
a PSA 6, and again to this PSA 7 in April, 2005. Sometime in 2009
I learned about the 1934 Annis Furs issue (formerly known as the
Detroit Tigers Team issue) and decided to replace the Goudey with
an example. After two years of searching I finally found a copy
with the help of a hobby friend. In January, 2012 I acquired this
beautiful SGC 40 card. |
