Auction #5 - June 2020
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/28/2020
The T222 Ligget & Myers Fatima Cigarettes set is really three sets in one. The series includes (52) known baseball players, (8) known actors listed at non-sport.com (the Crane Card listed here is not listed at non-sport.com) and actresses and a group of (4) track and field athletes. The backs of the cards advertise 100 cards, so the 65 cards known represent only about 2/3 of the advertised cards. The Baseball cards seem to be much more plentiful than do the other two subseries, so it is likely that any future checklist additions would be to the actors or track and field participants. The baseball checklist has been set for a very long time.
This lot is for a single T222 Fatima Photoplay actor card of Wilbur Crane. The card is in Poor condition with obvious condition issues but is an extremely scarce card missing from many advanced typecard collector's albums. Great opportunity to check a tough card off that list.
