Info on Churchman's Cigarette Cards 1939
 
Posted By: <b>Jbgird</b><p>Could anyone offer info on these Original Tobacco Card Set - Churchman Cigarettes, Kings of Speed which were issued in 1939. I recently bought these and know very little about them. Any info would be great like value, or rarity. Thanks<br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1111809899.JPG"> <br><br>JBGIRD

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>key cards (really the only 2 anyone collects) are Howard Hughes and Jessie Owens. They sell for $20+ in top condition. I've not seen a set break $100 but I don't watch them closely.

Posted By: <b>Judge Dred</b><p>Churchman's had a lot of different offerings. One sport set they had was put out in about 1938 or 1939 - Boxing - it wasn't a bad set. There were lots of big names in that set.

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>they should grade them without aproblem. It's probably not really worth getting them graded as high grade examples of these cards are very prevalent and there isn't much of a demand for them. Great cards if you into the subjects, but there is little demand or resale value.<br /><br />Jay<br><br>I've just reached Upper Lower Class. I am now officially a babe magnet for poor chicks.

Posted By: <b>Bruce Babcock</b><p>I picked up the complete set of these for $36 in 1997 from David Festberg. Not a lot of demand for these but I kind of like them. I don't think any of these guys were on steroids.
