Description: 1933 Goudey Baseball - #192 Walter Brown, New York Yankees - PSA 4 (MC) On the Player - Walter George "Jumbo" Brown (1907–1966) was a Major League Baseball pitcher who played for the Chicago Cubs (1925), Cleveland Indians (1927–1928), New York Yankees (1932–1933, 1935–1936), Cincinnati Reds (1937), and New York Giants (1937–1941). Over his career, Brown achieved a win-loss record of 33–31, an earned run average of 4.07, and 29 saves, leading the National League in saves twice. He was a two-time World Series champion (1932, 1936). Nicknamed “Jumbo” due to his imposing size—standing 6'4" and weighing around 300 pounds—Brown was well-liked both during and after his playing days. He was known for his humility, pride, and occasional self-deprecation. Set Information - 1933 Goudey Baseball Cards (R319) - In 1919, the Goudey Gum Company, founded by Enos Gordon Goudey, opened its first factory in Boston, Massachusetts. In 1933, Goudey pioneered a new advertising vehicle for selling gum, including baseball cards with each stick of gum. Cards had earlier been available with cigarettes and tobacco products, and with certain lines of candy. But baseball cards had not been available with gum, and not for an affordable price to all children, one penny for a stick of gum and a card. The 1933 Goudey “Big League Chewing Gum” set includes 240 cards (or 239, depending on your treatment of the Lajoie card, #106). The card dimensions are 2 3/8” by 2 7/8”. The 1933 Goudey set is considered by many as one of the “Big Three” classic baseball card sets, along with the 1909-1911 T206 tobacco set, and the 1952 Topps set.
