JRS001 SPACEMEN INSPECT ROCKET CENTER
When I was a young lad, living in Philadelphia, I collected this set of bubblegum cards. They we produced by the Bowman Gum, Co. in Philadelphia in 1951. There were 108 cards in the entire set. I currently own two cards, my collection having dissapated over the years. Since I can't afford to buy the cards one at a time, I collect images of the cards. This is the first card in the set. Most of the cards cover the adventures of the Space League, but several of them are for futuristic jet aircraft. Of course in 1951 we stood at the threshold of the future and these cards reflect the feeling of the age. Oh how bright the future looked!
