The V254 Pappoose Gum is one of the many sets that use the Allen & Ginter artwork from the 1880's. The artwork, as it has in other later series, has reversed images and embellished artwork--feathers added and brighter colors. The set contains the same (50) subjects as do the other variations of the artwork. The cards can be found with no advertising on the back or with advertising for both Papoose Gum or Tee Pee Gum.
This near set (43/50) cards from the V254 American Indians set is a mixed back set of cards from this set with cards from both the Papoose Gum back as well as the Tepee Gum back. The cards in this near set run from Fair condition to VGEX with most around GVG to VG. The back breakdown is (37) Papoose Gum cards and (6) Teepee Gum cards.
