Default Introducing a pair of new 1/1's from Australia

Posted By: Jason L

Finally adequately catalogued, these two Australian-issue cards have just arrived from SGC, and I am thrilled to own the first such cards ever authenticated and graded by either of the major companies.
No doubt there are other examples out there, and probably in nicer shape...but for now I will be narrow-minded and enjoy saying I have the only ones!
Incidentally, the Village Maid back is likely very rare, according to my research-to-date.
If others have similar, please share!

I remember seeing one of your cards in a major auction last year. The following doesn't really address your request, but here are a few to share:

but isn't that just the BEST back?!?!
I laughed heartily when I read that for the first time, and...you know what? I still get a little giggly everytime I read it.

I really can't imagine wanting to eat or chew anything that tastes like Irish Moss...I mean, I understand it's high in potassium and dirt, but geez.

I'm just tickled (though not pink, cuz that's girlie) that SGC put it on the flip!

thanks Leon.

and thanks for sharing those others, Andrew...very cool

Irish Moss Gum Jube's were a Nasty Ass chewin Gum that my Grandmother let me try once when I was about 6 years(43 Years ago). She use to suck on Irish Moss lozengers Too! Wasn't brave enough to try one of them

And Jason, if you ever decide to sell either of those beauty's, Please Let Me Know! They are absolutlty Brilliant Lad!!!

Gum Jubes in Australia refers to a chewy candy that most resembles 'gummies', but on the stale side...
Nasty Ass Taste? Of that there is no doubt!

The Irish Moss Gum Jubes were a throat lozenger that were kind of like eating a hard/stale gummy bear.

I don't know a lot about the two issues, but I can't say I've seen the Village Maid card before. The Allen's company released quite a few card sets in the day that were pretty popular, especially with Australian football cards.
