Twenty lower grade 1941 Gum Inc. Uncle Sam cards as follows:

ON HOLD

I also have a bunch of 1952 Topps Wings (R707-4). Many are in rough shape. The cards graded poor typically either have too much or too little paper on them.

11p, 12f, 17p, 19g, 20p, 27vg, 35p, 40f, 55p, 60vg, 65p, 68p, 79g, 85g, 87f, 91p, 102g, 104p, 105g, 108f, 112vg, 113p, 116p, 117g, 118f, 119vg, 123vg, 127vg, 128vg/ex, 130f, 131f, 133f, 134p, 140g, 144vg, 150vg/ex, 152vg, 153f, 156p, 157p, 163p, 167p, 170f, 171f, 172vg, 174f, 179vg, 180f, 182p, 183f, 188p, 189f, 191f, 192vg, 199g, 200p

Other sets will be added soon, including some 19th century and others from the early to mid 50s.

In general, I am seeking Gum Inc. military cards from the thirties. But also military related issues from the 40s and 50s.

Here are a few more cards which I have available, or want:

Gil,

I could use any and all of these that are free of writing and paper loss. Scans would be great if you can get them. Please email scans/prices to me at gotsparks@hotmail.com

Email me your want list as well, and I'll see if I have anything you're looking for.

Thanks, Ray

Ray, it was not my intent to sell cards, however, if that is your preference, lets see how to work this out. How about first we see which cards you really want.

I can send them all to you on approval. I do not have scanning capability yet. If you would rather not do that, I could mail color xerox copies of these to you.

Once we see what you wish to keep, ebay will tell us the approximate values. A quick check looked like about $2.50 for vg or so, and $1.50 for cards around g. Of course, we would want to firm that up a bit.

Let me know how you would like to proceed. And see if you have an interest in the Wings which I am adding for trade (or sale).

Gil,

You can send them to me for "approval" and we can work it that way if you want. I have JUST started this set, and your estimates seem to be spot on, or maybe a little low (from what I can tell so far). My guestimate is about $3 for VG and $2.50 for G (for first series) and $4/$3 (for second series).

The only stuff I have for trade that is vintage non-sports is about 10 or so T113 Types of Nations (Vg/G). I'd be happy to trade those for them. (T113's go for about $2 each in Vg/G). Other than that, I have some vintage Baseball. Off hand I can think of 1933 Goudey 1935/1936 Goudey (two - both graded), T206 (all graded), Diamond Stars (all graded), etc. I also have a good chunk of modern stuff I'm looking to offload (autos, game used, etc).

Let me know if you're interested in modern and I'll send you my trade page (don't have one set up right now for vintage).

Not really interested in the Wings right now. Email me your wantlist, or let me know if there could be anything I have that you may need.

Thanks, Ray

Gilbert -

I have four USAF cards that are apparently recruiting cards of some sort. They are somewhat like the Topps Wings cards, but a bit smaller and feature "Qualifications for enlistment" on the back. The four I have are an F-104, an F-102, a B-58, and a B-52. Let me know if you are interested in them.

Take Care, Geno
