Auction #16 - February 2024
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/25/2024
The R188 set is an obscure set that has two types--a type 1 that are small, 1 15/16" W by 2 11/16" H in size and full color-front and back--and a type 2 that is 1 7/8" W by 2 3/4" H in size and printed on cheaper, thinner paper stock. Both types note that they are from W.S.N.Y. and are dated 1941. W.S.N.Y. issued a number of cards--most notably many of the strip card sets in the "R" category. Most of the W.S.N.Y. issues are 'kitchy' type cards with less than the best artwork. Cards are unnumbered and only have W.S.N.Y. on them for identification purposes.
This lot is for a single R188 W.S.N.Y. Games and Puzzles card. It pictures a man with (3) hats and the caption on the back "Here are three hats for Oscar". The card is in VGEX to EX condition with clean perforations and unpunched. Very tough type card.
