Posted By: <b>Steve Lipe</b><p>why are the 1931-32 4 on 1 Exhibit cards so hard to find. It seems everytime I pick up a card magazine there is someone who is the "expert" on Exhibits and "has the market cornered". Just curious...thanks for listening

Posted By: <b>Brad Green</b><p><br />My understanding is (and my personal experience indicates) that the 1931-2 Exhibit 4/1 are the 2nd toughest set of the Exhibit 4/1's. The 1933's are the toughest of all.<br /><br />I'm still looking for a 1933 Exhibit 4/1 with Grove, Cochrane, Foxx and Simmons if anyone happens to have one that they'd be willing to part with.<br /><br /><br />

That combined with the paper recycling drives of WWII, which would have come at a time when your kids of 1931 were around their late teens and really would not have cared about their cards, and I think the issues were smaller and many were destroyed.
