-- The following two pictures show what the cards from this particular MINT set look like when scanned without a soft sleeve protector. I scanned one example this way to show you the amazing color and condition without the distraction of the soft sleeve.
(Example scanned w/out Soft Sleeve to show the Amazing Color & Condition!)
-- I have been collecting these cards since joining eBay in 1998. I am selling everything in my collection. These cards typically sell for $15.00-$30.00 in "excellent" condition (PSA 5 Quality). The Buy it Now is a potential steal in this condition!
-- Most cigarette companies prior to WWII offered black and white tobacco cards in their packets as the use of color was much more expensive. For this reason, the Champions of 1936 tobacco cards were produced in very limited quantities! Check out the amazing color and detail in the images on the card!
