Presented is a 72-card complete set of R109 Gum, Inc. "Pirate Pictures" non-sports cards issued in the 1930s. Each of these paper thin, blank-backed collectibles were likely cut from an advertising sheet. The flavorful color images of this non-sport classic surely appealed to young Americans who have long been fascinated by the infamous pirates and their swashbuckling, seafaring lifestyle. Each well illustrated card showcases their buccaneer subjects in dynamic, richly colored renderings. Mostly EX to NM (balance is lesser).
