1933 Goudey Bombshell: #106 Proof? + Lajoie vs. Full Set + Indian Gum + Managing Counterfeits
Hosts Jeremy Lee and Leighton Sheldon welcome legendary Baltimore collector Dan McKee for a rich dive into 1933 Goudey and the hobby stories that bring it to life. We cover the origin of Nap Lajoie card 106, why some copies were mailed with staple holes, and whether a full Goudey set without Lajoie can beat the single card in today’s market. Dan also shares a striking claim about the popularity of Goudey Indian Gum with kids in 1933, and we explore a little-known proof curiosity involving a Leo Durocher card numbered 106. Along the way we hit collecting philosophy, raw vs. graded, counterfeit detection, and the joy of handling cards.
Highlights
• Nap Lajoie 106 history and mail-in stories
• Set vs. single: take Lajoie or the rest of 1933 Goudey
• Why Indian Gum may have outpaced baseball with kids in 1933
• Possible Leo Durocher 106 proof and what it could mean
• Raw binders, card handling, and the smell test for counterfeits
• Dan’s path from Old Judge to 1950s sets and his 1910 Washington Times favorite
• Type collecting vs. “flight collecting” for smarter sampling
• PSA Registry gaps and how oddball proofs fit in
• Display pieces, wrappers, and advertising for set companions
Guest: Dan McKee, long-time vintage collector from Baltimore
Hosts: Jeremy Lee and Leighton Sheldon
