1933-36 is a gold mine for vintage Tigers' material. There are a ton of regional sets, premiums, pins, etc. Even national releases seem to be Detroit heavy during this span. Lots of great characters too: Schoolboy, Greenberg, Mickey C. It's a shame that squad doesn't carry the reverence or mystique that the Gashouse Gang, 50's Giants, or Brooklyn Bums reserve. You could argue that the mid-30's are the high water mark of the franchise. Of course, I'm biased.
