Favorite Companion Pieces

[WillowGrove]

Rob, Chris and fellow memorabilia guys...sorry, I forgot I was posting on this side! Didnt mean to drop some rare card stuff and run away.

JuJu Drums were round gum like Colgan’s Chips (very popular round gum that also came with a "card"). However JuJu Drums are very rare. Or at least super scarce. And they're such an odd issue because many of the players on cards had barely played in the majors or, the stars who do appear in the set are images we dont see elsewhere. So its really an oddball issue. Only made for one year 1910.

See pic of front and back below....

Very good, then! So, how big is the container? Did it hold bunches of “chips”?
