The R191 Big Alarm Candy set was issued by General Gum of Chicago, Illinois. The boxes pictured a fire truck on one side and a person on the other and there were six unique boxes in a complete set. The images are frequently found cut from the package design and were given the classification R191 by Jefferson Burdick in the American Card Catalog.The box measures 5-1/8" x 2-3/4" x 1-5/8".
This is a near complete set of (10) cards with (6) fire trucks and (4) characters in scenes cards. They are hand cut from the boxes and in GVG to VGEX condition. This is a tough set to complete and would be a great addition to even the best nonsports collection.
