Description: |
In 1937 Gum Incorporated made a series of cards called "Wild West Series". There was a contest where if you sent in a complete run of 25 cards (1-25 or 25-49) you would win a cowboy outfit. Not wanting to give away too many prizes the company severly short printed card #25 (depicting the outfit you were to win) making it one of the rarest and most desirable cards from this era. Only a few examples are known. Here is your chance to fill that pesky hole in your collection with a special version of the card. This is a quality limted edition (only 250 were made) reprint (clearly marked) of this ultra rare card . You also get the promo "overprint" back that was distributed at the recent 60th Philly Non-sports Card Show (also limited to 250). This may be your only chance to own an example of this super rare card. Note: The card you receive does NOT have the watermark on it. |
