The 1933-34 National Chicle Sky Birds is one of the key sets of the Early Gum cards of the 1930's. Its beautiful art deco look along with important WWI flying subjects captured the imagination of the children of the day. The set, like many of the day was issued in sheets of 24 cards and series with back variations noting different numbers of series in the set. This method created a number of variations--some of which are difficult to find and create a good challenge for the variation collectors.
This lot of (5) R136 National Chicle Sky Birds cards have all been graded by PSA and includes the following subjects: #3 Lieutenant Thieffrey (PSA4 VGEX), #38 Captain James McCudden (PSA4 VGEX), #52 The Salamander (PSA3 VG), #75 Elliott W. Springs (PSA5 EX) and #77 Captain A. Roy Brown (PSA3 VG). Great lot of clean cards from this very popular set.
