Default Pretty Cool Uncatalgued 1939 Card Set (Info appreciated)

Posted By: Kyle

One of my favorite aspects of this hobby, and seeing auctions on eBay, is trying to figure out what something is (ie Big Show Candy). I tried, I looked, couldn't figure it out. Maybe they're all 1 of 1's, worth thousands of dollars and you could trade them for all the Albert Pujols rookies you'd ever want! Just kidding, Rhett.

But I do have one lead, that I came up with as I was writing this post. Its a stretch, but a decent one.

The font looks remarkably similar to the font used in the 1939 Father and Son Shoes set of cards listed here. Notice the similarities in the "M" in Mize and M in Moses.
