Description: The ungraded card is in excellent condition with visible signs of wear. There are four nice corners and some spotting on the backside of the card. The card measures roughly 3.75" x 2.75". Please review the attached pictures to assist with the condition and content of the card. The 1954 Stark & Wetzel cards were a promotional campaign where an Indianapolis 500 Winners card would be inserted in the packaging of one of their meat products. There are a total of 37 cards in this set, and they are very rare. As of this posting, a total of 47 cards have been submitted to PSA for grading, and only a single Ray Harroun card. Ray Harroun was born in 1879 in Spartanburg, Pennsylvania. Harroun was known as the "Little Professor" due to his partnership with Howard Marmon in creating the Marmom Wasp. He raced in over 60 AAA events and won at least 19 of them. Harroun came out of retirement to win the first Indianapolis 500 driving the #32 Marmon Wasp and wouldn't race again after 1911. Harroun would go on to work in the automotive industry until he was 89 years old. He passed away in 1968. Please review the other racing items I have listed at the eBay store, The Checkered Past. I will combine shipping and provide a refund on shipping charges for anything over cost. Thanks!
