Auction #18 - October 2024
The R109 Gum Inc Pirate Pictures set is a 72 card set that pictures scenes of daily Pirate life. The cards are condition sensitive often found with surface issues as it seems the paper stock wasn't the best. Three cards, #9, #34 and #59 are prohibitively difficult to locate and give set collectors fits trying to find them. There is no known explanation on what the reason for that is as well. The three were right next to each other in the lower right corner of the sheet they were on so it is possible it was a cutting issue that caused them to be so difficult to locate.
This near set of (65/72) cards from the R109 Gum Inc Pirate's Picture set run the gamut in condition from Fair to EX with most cards being GVG to VG. Cards missing from the set include #6, 9, 18, 34, 37, 59 and 70.
