Of the '53 Glendale Meats collector's I have communicated with, only 1 of us had completed the set. He had picked up the rare 4 early on and snagged the rest over the ensuing years in the pre-internet days.

Following is the VCBC article on Glendale Meats, from VCBC #36, Spring 2003.

Since this thread was created a number of Ginsberg's have popped up. I was able to acquire one, which is the last of the tough 4 (Houtteman, Wight, Ginsberg and Friend) to complete the set. It is incredibly tough to find nicely graded cards
