The R60 Gum Inc G-Men and the Heroes of the Law set pictured images from a game kids have played for the ages--cops and robbers. In this set, however, the cops were the G-Men and the Hroes of the Law and the robbers or bad guys were those criminals they faced in these perilous situations. Inexplicably, Gum, Inc issued this skip-numbered set in a number of series--some of which were significantly easier to obtain than others. There are well-known runs of cards that are prohibitively difficult like the 400's, 300's and 200's. There are the skip numbered extremely difficult 12 cards, the next difficult group of skip numbered cards. There are the low number left-hand skip card variations and there are other variations. This set is a variation collectors dream.
This lot of (7) cards from the R60 Gum Inc G-Men and the Heroes of the Law are from the strip variety of the set. The card fronts are centered but the card backs are both off-centered and the number does not match the number on the front. The card fronts run from #18 to #24. The corresponding backs are #2 through #8. Interesting lot for the variation collector that may have all the cards in the R60 set and looking for some new collecting angle on the set.
