Default O/T Vintage Non-Sports Cards

Posted By: Judge Dred (Fred)

I believe that the books are cataloged as N79s. There are 50 different, no baseball players of which I am aware.

Duke did put out the N88 Terrors of America set which is a sports themed set of cartoon drawings of kids playing sports. The N136 Duke Terrors of America set has the same cards as the N88 set but the cards are superimposed on a colorful background. It kind of reminds me of the N43 set where A&G placed the N29 cards on a colorful background.

Duke also put out the N135 Talk of the Diamond set but no players were identified or mentioned. Duke put out a lot of interesting non-sport material, I think the most interesting for baseball collectors is the N154 Presidential BB Club set with the heads of Cleveland, McKinley or Harrison superimposed into a picture that has the bodies of players in uniform.
