Stuff about my collection
 
entry Jun 6 2015, 04:27 AM
On Friday 05 Jun 2015: I got two small packages. Both from Ebay purchases/auctions

Package 1:
A lone card Non-Sport sweetie for $9.95 + $3.20 Shipping. A single nice condition 1953 R757-1 Comic Character Card "Sugar Daddy" series 29 The Dragon Lady from Terry And The Pirates. This was from a set of 50 cards where there are blank boxes that the collector was to fill in the blanks identifying the character and then after collecting 25 cards mailing the correctly identified cards in to the candy maker they would get a GIANT sized Sugar Daddy "lollypop". There is an identical second "series" R757-2 that has a "coupon" on the bottom of the card (similar to the tabs on the Red Man Tobacco cards). The coupon was for a beanie or set of beanie buttons.

I plan on getting the coupon version of this card (there is one on Ebay for like $25 I'd like to try to find it cheaper and maybe try for some of the other cards in the set. First getting the characters I like. I have my eye on an Indian character from the first series.

Package 2:
Also from Ebay purchase price $3.99 Free Shipping. Two 1975-76 Topps Basketball Scratch-Off Game cards Unscratched. I have the Football and Hockey editions of this style of scratch-off card from Topps. I don't think they made a baseball version of these generic game cards. They did make some scratch off cards for Baseball in the 60s and early 70s but a different style.

The seller tossed in a BONUS card Also from 1975: Curtain Associates a McDonald's "We do it all for You Quiz" scratch off card unscratched. I don't recall seeing these things.
