Issued by a Montreal candy company, these small
(1-3/8" X 2-1/4") black-and-white cards were redeemable
for baseball equipment, accounting for their scarcity today. Card
#15, Stengel, was only discovered in 1992 and was obviously short-printed
by the issuer to avoid giving away many bats, balls, and gloves.
Only a single specimen of the Stengel card is currently known.
The example of Ed Roush, shown above, is the absolute best copy
in the country, graded EX-MT by PSA.
