Notes: Checklist Incomplete. These cards show pictures from the MBSC Co. Captioned Strip Card set and Strollers T85 set at least, but with a J.B. Carr ad on the back. The J. B. Carr cards are not strip cards but are machine cut. The American Beauty Malt set contains a mixture of these same types of cards and may contain the same checklist as the J. B. Carr set, but not enough cards have been seen from either set to know.

The backs say there are 100 cards in the set and that they were issued with packages Owl Biscuits and other backed goods. It also mentions an album being available.
