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.
Lot includes the following numbers: 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18, 19, 20, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 29, 32, 33, 36, 40, 42, 44, 47, 50, 51, 53, 55, 56, 58, 59, 60, 62, 63, 65, 66, 67, 69, 72, 77, 79, 80, 82, 84, 86, 89, 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98, 101, 103, 104, 106, 109, 111, 112, 117, 119, 120, 123, 125, 126, 128, 132, 135, 142, 151, 158, 160, 166. The cards in this lot represent a good group of the more readily available lower numbered R60 G-Men cards. The condition on this lot runs the gamut between G and EX and the average trends to the VGEX+ to EX- range. This is a nice start to a set of G-Men.
