Now it doesn't specify any specific player names, but college collectors love them for the lithography and gold foil border.
Still my favorite Pre-War set. Aside from the 8 baseball cards, there are a handful of basketball scenes, a handful of football scenes/players, plenty of track/field athletes, and cards from hockey, tennis, swimming, even biathlon.

Cards in Fair condition can be bought for a couple of bucks, but high grade cards can fetch hundreds. Not sure any card has topped $1,000 by itself yet.

Those are some very cool looking cards. The Ohio State University is probably my favorite baseball one. Been looking for a Huron College one already in a SGC holder for quite a while.
