1933 Goudey #175 Dan Howley
About Dan Howley
Daniel Philip "Dapper Dan" Howley (1885-1944), born and later died in Weymouth, Massachusetts, reached the majors as a catcher with the 1913 Philadelphia Phillies, batting just .125 in a brief trial before turning to managing in the minors. He built his reputation piloting the Toronto Maple Leafs of the International League across four stints (1918, 1923-26, 1933, 1937), winning pennants in 1918 and 1926 and later earning induction into the International League Hall of Fame. That success carried him to the majors, where he managed the St. Louis Browns (1927-29), guiding them to a third-place finish in 1928, and then the Cincinnati Reds (1930-32) during the depths of the Depression, when both clubs struggled to compete with the era's powerhouse Yankees and Cardinals. He also coached for the Detroit Tigers in 1919 and 1921-22. His 1933 Goudey card catches him back in Toronto for another turn managing the Maple Leafs.

Frequently asked questions
What is the 1933 Goudey Dan Howley card?
It is card #175 of the 1933 Goudey (R319) Baseball set - the 240-card, 2-3/8 by 2-7/8 inch color-art set issued in 1933 with Big League Chewing Gum. It pictures Dan Howley as manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Is the 1933 Goudey Dan Howley #175 a rookie card?
By modern catalog convention, yes. 1933 Goudey is treated as the hobby's first major nationally distributed gum set, so nearly every card in it carries the rookie-card (RC) designation - a modern label applied retroactively, since many of these players had earlier tobacco, caramel, or strip cards.
How many cards are in the 1933 Goudey set?
240 numbered cards, though collectors usually count 241 collectible cards because #6 Jimmy Dykes exists in an error and a corrected version. Only 239 numbers were in 1933 packs - #106 (Nap Lajoie) was printed in 1934 and issued by mail.
