These Rare and Valuable Sports Cards Could be Sitting in Your Home

Lou Gehrig, famously known as “The Iron Horse,” appears on two cards in the 1933 Goudey series — numbers 92 and 160. Both feature the same iconic image of the Yankees legend, but card #160 stands out for its rarity in high-grade condition.

It also features a lighter blue background and whiter borders, giving it a distinct look and higher market value. Despite Gehrig’s historic impact on the game, his cards from this set are often overshadowed by the four Babe Ruth cards. Still, for collectors, owning either Gehrig card is a powerful tribute to a baseball great.
