Auction #9 - October 2021
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 10/24/2021
The General Baking Company issued the D4 series likely in the 1950's as bottom trays for packages of donuts or cookies. The cards picture simple drawings of various animals, ships or aircraft. The cards are tough to find in nice shape as the food soiled the card backs. The cards from the D4 series are lettered "A", "B" or "C".
This lot of (6) cards are in about VG to VGEX condition absent the condition issues on the backs of the cards. There are obvious spots on the backs where oil or moisture from the donuts soiled the blank backs. The cards in this lot include (3) Ships: Sub Chaser, Destroyer and Battleship, (2) Airplanes: XB-51 and C-119 and (1) Animal: Tiger. Great lot of these scarce cards--rarely seen.
