Are these listed in the Standard Catalog, I can't seem to find them if they are?

Randall,
I believe one of our members has a picture of the pamphlet but I believe they were put out by Bit O Honey candy in the 50s. You could also get the player leather tags,footballs,baseballs, and make a charm bracelet out of it. Al

There are five known charms to this set: Feller, Williams, Kiner, Blackwell, and Newhouser. I believe they were made in the late 1940s.

Here is what I was talking about. You can see the words bit o honey if you look close. Al

Al, all one has to do is click on the thumbnail and it will enlarge.

I've seen these before....wasn't there a small hoard of these found in the last few years?

The Luckee charms are on Page 345 of the 2009 Standard Catalog. I'd never previously heard of a Bit-o-Honey connection.

There is a difference between the Luckee Key charms made of metal and the leather charms available through Bit-O-Honey.
