Issuing Company: Gumakers of America, Inc., Clifton Heights, PA Country of Issue: USA Year of Issue: 1939 Color/B&W: B&W Number of Cards in Set: 24 Card Size: 2 7/16" x 3 1/8" Issued as insert with what product: Gum |
Notes: Blank-backed. This set was issued by Gumakers of America, though the company name is not on the cards themselves.
Date info: The Jane Withers card includes a caption for the 1939 film "Boy Friend," and the Robert Taylor card contains a caption for the 1939 film "Lucky Night," so I am placing a date of 1939 on this set for now. The wrapper also contains a 1939 date, confirming the 1939 date.
The photos from this set were taken from xerox copies, so the actual coloring of these cards will look different from the scans. Thanks to Bob Richardson for providing the information to start this checklist and to Marty Krim for additional help on this checklist.
