Blatz Gum is the second gum company credited with issuing cards for the 1933 Chicago's World's Fair known as the Century of Progress. They issued a (32) card set. The set can be found with the Blatz advertising on the back or in (16) card small folios akin to the mini postcards that were popular in the same timeframe. Two folios made up the same (32) card set and can be found a little easier than the Blatz-backed cards.
This lot includes (17) of the Blatz-backed advertising cards with the following numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 10, 11, 14, 15, 16, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26 and 30. Over half the set is present here in approximately consistent EX condition.
