Below are short bits & pieces on sportscard & baseball trading card collecting.
Please wander around the website for more info, prices, values & images
on vintage baseball, football, basketball, hockey, sport and non-sports cards.
1941-1942 War Gum (R164)
The 1941 War Gum set of (132) 2-1/2" x 3-1/8" cards were issued
Gum Inc. picturing war events, generals and heroes.
It began in 1941 and continued into 1942.
The cards were quite similar to Gum Inc.'s Horrors of War set,
but with tamer images and more focus on the bravery of the allied
forces. Horrors of War seemed to focus more on the atrocities of
our enemies.
The backs reminded you to "Buy War Bonds and Stamps for VICTORY."
Sadly, this was the last great bubble gum card set issued in the
U.S. before the war effort cut off supplies of essential materials.

Protecting and Storing your Card Collection
There are many different ways to protect, organize and store your sports cards.
Soft Sleeves
also called "penny sleeves" are the most basic protection for your cards.
Made of thin plastic, they come in packs of 100 and are very inexpensive.
Top Loads
are rigid plastic holders and a step up in protection over "soft sleeves".
Called top-loads because you place the card thru a thin opening at the top.
They come in many sizes for regular cards upto 8-1/2 x 11 for magazines and
even larger.
Screw-Down Acrylic Holders
These are sometimes used for better, more expensive cards. Small screws hold
two pieces of clear acrylic together. In a variety of sizes and thickness
that not only protect the card but can funciton as a paper weight or display
item.
There are also Single-Screw Screw-Downs that use only 1 screw to seal the holder.
They are easier to use and provide the same type of protectionas regular screwdowns
and they are also much less expensive costing as little as .30 in quantity
while 1 inch or 2 inch acrylic screw-downs can cost upto several dollars.
