1930s Wheaties GG Wheaties article

[clamendo]

There is a mid 40s set that is multi-sport that contains a Bernie Bierman (cartoonish) that's real tough. I remember taking to Bob Bostick who had that largest Wheaties collection going. He bought an entire collection in an old Mastro Auction just to get the set of 10! His collection was auctioned by Clean Sweep years ago. I think he had 30+ complete boxes. He passed away though.

Are you talking about this one?



Our article in GG was focused on the complete master set of Wheaties cards from the 1930s.
