Default 1933 Lajoie story

Posted By: MW

I've spoken to collectors who were living back in the 1930s and they've all told me roughly the same story. After collecting the "entire" set, they were dismayed to find that there was one card they could never find -- #106 Lajoie. Upon written request, a card was issued to each collector, although it wasn't printed until the following year. The Goudey Gum Company also sent a letter along with the card. I seem to recall a copy of this letter in an auction a few years ago, but I'm not entirely certain.
