Item Description
Very interesting and scarce gum issue. Comprised of 32 pieces of paper play money for Presidents Washington through FDR, plus denomination varieties for three Presidents, bringing the total number issued to 35. This lot has all 35 including variants:  Coolidge ($500), Hoover ($100) and FDR (One Million). Each is 2.25x5.25", fronts feature portrait at center, backs have bio text for that President. These were issued folded and came in a waxed paper wrapper titled "President's Gum." Scattered wear/aging, these mostly range from VG to EX. Set also includes textured cardboard box called a "Pocket Album." Front features FDR w/title "Presidents Pocket History Album." Text on back notes this was to be used to hold the complete set "And Have A Complete Vest-Pocket History Of Our Presidents." Noticeable wear and aging w/some pencilling but a great compliment to the set. Something for both non-sport and political collectors alike.
