To my eyes, all the Wheaties issues are cool, I can't imagine why they wouldn't be sought after, "cards" or not cards. As a very tangential aside, on the broadcast of a Senators/Cleveland game in 1939 with Walter Johnson doing the play-by-play, it is mentioned that he would be at Miller's Market in D.C. that night signing boxes of Wheaties, who sponsored the broadcasts. That's always been one of my holy grails, to come across one of those boxes signed by him, but I've never seen one. Assuming he did that throughout the season, there must be some out there somewhere.
