Each card has been graded or assessed by SGC. Presented is a 4-card complete set of R309-1 Goudey Premiums issued in 1934 plus its original mailing envelope. In a creative and ambitious 1934 promotion, Goudey Gum Co. offered a selection of four delectable premiums that were available only by mail in exchange for Goudey baseball wrappers. These very substantial, high-quality pieces were printed on thick cardboard stock and designed with foldout cardboard easel attachments on the reverse sides, thus allowing each card to stand on its own for display.
