1933 Goudey #1, Benny Bengough Iconic Card of The Hobby
Throwback to one of the hobby's most iconic pre-war sets.
The most interesting thing about the 1933 Goudey #1 Benny Bengough card is that it is arguably the most famous common card in the entire hobby.
Bengough was a solid major-league catcher and a member of the 1927 Yankees, but he was never a superstar. Yet his 1933 Goudey card routinely sells for far more than many Hall of Famers from the same set. The reason is simple: it's Card #1 in one of the most important baseball card sets ever produced.
