The 33 cards offered here are from the Canadian-produced World Wide Gum baseball sets issued in 1933 and 1934. The group includes Hall of Fame inductee Tris Speaker. The World Wide Gum sets were the Canadian counterpart to the US-produced Goudey sets, and the cards are found in a much lower population than that of the Goudey. The 1933 cards found in this group are: #13, 26, 32, 39, 45, 50, 51. The 1934 series cards include #2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 13, 14, 14, 15, 18, 19, 20, 22, 23, 25, 26, 29 (Tris Speaker), 31, 34, 41, and 42. All items are guaranteed authentic by Miller & Miller Auctions.
