My favorite early John Wayne card...
Frankie Darro Picture Stamp Club
These are very similar in size and look to the Rogers Peet sports card set and feature essentially "friends" of young actor Frankie Darro, who was a bit of a big deal as a young actor in the early 1930's.
Dates to 1934 as it references Darro's movie "Burn 'em up Barnes"
It features cards of boxer Max Baer, Laurel/Hardy, Shirley Temple, Will Rogers, the Little Rascals, and a young John Wayne.
