Notes: The American Card Catalog number for this set is D32. These cards can be found with Drake's Cake backs or with Yankee Cake backs.
The stars appear to be grouped by studio. This set includes baseball star Babe Ruth as a movie actor and the last card shows a comic image from Aesop's Sound Fables with one of the cartoon characters holding a Drake's Cake on a plate.
Date info: The 1932 movie "Sky Devils" is mentioned on the Dvorak card, dating this set to 1932 at the earliest. "The Silver Lining" was also a 1932 release. A group of these 20 of these cards was listed on ebay, all with a stamped date of Jun 25 1932, which seems to verify the 1932 date.
