As concluded, Gehrig’s fame lasted just as long as his performance in the sport. It was during 1939 that Gehrig decided that he was done with the game, having broken the record for the longest-running spell of games, a total of 2,130. Beyond that, his record was beaten with Cal Ripken Jr.’s efforts. Simultaneously, a PSA 10 1933 Goudey Gehrig, having enjoyed a Gem Mint status, reached a $33,000 value. This happened prior to its $274,950 during 2007. Ten years passed and the card remains the 1933 Goudey Gehrig gem to have landed a PSA 10 grading.
