The Globo Gum Foreign Legion set was issued in France in the 1930's and is very reminiscent of the 1930's gum cards of the United States around the same time. The artwork on the cards picture the French Foreign Legion's exploits around the world and in key battles from the early to mid 19th century. The card titles and back narratives are in french. The card stock is very similar to the US issues of the same timeframe.
This is a very clean set overall with cards from VG to EXMT with most averaging EX to EX-. Great opportunity to pick up a complete set of this infrequently seen subject.
