Only a couple of these that I am aware of........

These obscure candy cards are hindering the completion of my George Gibson player collection.

Gotta say, I really do like the cards though.

Still have never seen the J=K Gibson. Anyone have one to share?

I have some from the original Fleer Whiz Bang find....always wanted to finish the full set including actors. There are a couple of 1 of 1's, so likely won't make it. There aren't too many of these baseball players either. I don't have access to my photo's currently but this is what they look like.

Sorry no Gibson J=K but I do have these. Has anyone seen a similar Wagner Type 2?

W or E?
W515 card but with Fleer advertisement that claims:

Every Five-Cent Package of Fleer's Bobs and Fruit Hearts contains a picture of a famous person. Get the complete set of 120.

Tom is correct, the E241 set is a "mixed subject" set including the 60 baseball players from W515 and 60 other subjects including Presidents, Actors, and Wild West subjects (hence the 120 subjects on back of the cards). In my opinion as tough as the baseball players are the non-sports subjects are harder to find...

Here is a Ulysses S. Grant and Whitey Witt from the E241 set...
