194. 1933 Lou Gehrig Baseball Card

Creator: Goudey
Original Price: $0.05*
Worth Today: $192,000*

Lou Gehrig is one of baseball's most famous players, and his collector's items have been known to sell for big bucks at auction. A major money-maker of the Gehrig years is his 1933 Goudey baseball card. Gehrig was represented twice in the 1933 Goudey set.

The Gehrig cards are the keys to the set and the PSA 9 cards are the best sellers as they are in immaculate condition. These cards are found with white borders and light blue coloring and the # 160 (rarer than the # 92) has been described as "unliked" due to the lack of focus and color. Still, despite these shortcomings, the 1933 Goudey still sold for $$ 192,000 at auction in the 2010s.
