Pre "The Other War"
There seems to be a clear consensus that the term "PreWar" refers to cards issued in 1941 and earlier. That's an easy call since that's when the US entered WWII and paper rationing pretty much ended all but a few outlier sets.
But what about World War I? There doesn't really seem to have been any down turn in card manufacturing then. The US entered in late 1914 and it lasted until late 1918. The Standard Catalog lists over 50 sets from 1915-1917 (oddly only one strip card started in 1918) and a few in 1919 before things pick back up in 1920 So is there such a thing as Pre War I? If so, when does it begin?
