Presented is a 48-card complete set of R83 Gum, Inc. "Lone Ranger" non-sports cards issued in 1940. This hobby classic held the kids (and adults) of the 1930s enthralled as they followed along to the Western adventures of the Lone Ranger, his faithful companion Tonto, and his loyal steed, Silver, that aired on the radio. Even those of us not yet born during that time are familiar with the ringing call of "Hi-Yo Silver!" It is no wonder that the "Lone Ranger" Gum card series is one of the most popular ever issued. This full set of 48 pieces, including all of the series' scarce "high numbers," delivers the action, color, and overall charm that have made the issue so famous. Highlights include: #'s 1 (GD) and 48 (FR). Grades 15% EX to EX/MT, 64% VG to VG/EX, 21% lesser.
