I had not noticed the used of Gold Medal Foods... At this moment I've only looked in the 5th edition of the Standard Catalog, and is has Foods. I always thought it was Gold Medal Flour.
The 5th edition Standard Catalog calls them 1934 Gold Medal Foods, (R313A), and lists 12 cards. So I'm wondering where I got thinking it was "Flour" in my head...

My Old Cardboard article
on the "Pen" sets (R313, R314, Gold Medal, etc.) gives some info about the nomenclature - Gold Medal Flour was one product in the Gold Medal Foods line, which was produced by General Mills. The cards were advertised primarily as Gold Medal Foods premiums (rather than specific to the flour).
You guys might have an interest in checking out my articles. I haven't talked to Lyman for a while, but according to the site, back issues are still available for individual purchase, or (if you never subscribed) you can order the whole run. They pack a tremendous wealth of information on vintage cards. These articles are in issues 6 and 7. https://oldcardboard.com/subscriptions.asp

And then there's the 1934 Indianapolis Indians that sure look like the exact same Gold Medal Foods model, but so far haven’t been identified. I know of three others on Net54 who have these.
