That's a great photograph of kids behind the wheel of a chocolate truck. I didn't even know that they had chocolate trucks...but what does it have to do with baseball.

I know there were companies such as Darby's and Neilsson's that sold chocolates with baseball cards inserted. Did they have chocolate trucks that went door to door delivering chocolates?

Fair enough. I am not sure exactly how the Baguer Chocolates were delivered but this is obviously one of their trucks. I guess it would be no different than seeing a Frito Lay truck today unloading at the local convenience store. And of course the Walter Johnson card shown is one of Baguer Chocolate cards. They don't come up too often for sale....

edited for spelling....also the picture was perrfect when I won it on ebay but damaged with the heavy crease in the mail....bummer....

The Truck and the baseball card make for a good combination. Suitable for framing together...nice.

Leon, thanks for posting very interesting....

....Do all baguer chocolate cards have the stamp on the back?

Are they considered strip cards (are that hand cut)?

How many cards are in the set? if you have a list, please post.
"List Found ~ page 37 2007 standerd catalog"
