The R41 Dick Tracy set of (144) cards was issued in 1937 by the Walter H Johnson candy company of Chicago, IL. The cards were issued with Dick Tracy Caramels in 1 cent packs. The set pictured the episodes of Dick Tracy which originally began in 1931. By the time this set was issued, American children were fascinated with the yellow-coated detective and his exploits. The cards picture Tracy and his cast of characters fighting crime and solving problems. A large find of cards numbered 121-144 in very high grade was found in the 1980's and most sets typically have those high number cards in EXMT or better.
This lot includes a pair of R41 Walter Johnson Candy Dick Tracy cards that have been graded PSA6 EX-MT. The two subjects in the lot are #106 Birds of a Feather and #108 Stooge Viller's Trickery. Very clean pair from this popular Dick Tracy set.
