Description: The card shown is the exact card you will receive. This is one of many cards from this great vintage set I will be posting so please check my eBay store for other listings. (Lot: 08-19-14) You are purchasing a 1938 Gum, Inc. #240 card: "The Frightful Cost of War." LAST CARD to Series I.This is an authentic, AND an extremely hard-to-find card to this great vintage set. It is the LAST card to Series I of this set - a card that does not come up for sale very often.A very, VERY tough card to find in any condition!I consider this card to be in "good" condition. NO CREASES. But, I am NOT a grader of cards. Just an avid fan and collector of pre-1970 non-sports cards. The initial 240 "Horrors of War" card set was released in 1938 and provided historical accounts or the Chinese/Japanese War, Spanish Civil War, and the war in Ethiopia. An additional 48 card set, Series II was also produced following the 240 card set. These cards, #241 - #288, are the "high number" cards for this entire set and centered around the violence with Germany and the onset of World War II.This card will make a great addition for your set building, or an excellent starter card if you are starting your 1938 "Horrors of War" collection! I have been collecting these classic collectible cards for many years. They are a great source of historical account of a major part of this world's history. Please judge for yourself it's condition and centering. This card will be placed in a "penny saver" and rigid plastic holder and packed for safe shipment. Additionally, the card will be insured for the perspective buyer at no additional cost! As with all of my items, the shipping is FREE (ONLY in the U.S.) and satisfaction guaranteed. If you are not happy with your purchase, simply return for a full refund.Thank you for looking and for your purchase consideration.
