B&W Strip Cards

SCARCE - These blank backed B&W cards were originally sold at candy and toy stores in vertical strips of 10 cards. They are rarely found still in strip form. The strip usually included players from the same team or 2-3 teams. The W573's are 2" by 3.4" and similar in design to the popular E120 American Caramel set of the same year. There are 240 unnumbered cards in the complete set.
