Auction #3 - October 2019
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 10/27/2019
The D117 Famous Men set from Weber Baking's Pullman and Onist bread borrows the artwork from the T68 tobacco series. In the D117 instance, the artwork has been reversed from the T68 orientation. The set contains 50 cards from the "Heroes of History" portion of the T68 set. The fronts are colorful and the backs are printed in black and the cards are particularly thin. Significantly thinner than tobacco card counterparts.
This lot of (8) D117 Famous Men cards have been graded by PSA as EX5. The subjects in the lot include: Gen. John C Fremont, Joan of Arc, John Paul Jones, Abraham Lincoln, Samuel F.B. Morse, Sir Walter Riley, Gen. Wm T Sherman and James Watt. Phenomenal, mid to high grade lot for the issue that would be a good base to a clean set of these cards.
