1936 R313 National Chicle Fine Pen Premiums

1936 R313 National Chicle Fine Pen Premiums Pittsburgh Pirates

Issued in 1936 by the National Chicle Co., this set consists of 120 cards, measuring 3-1/4" x 5-3/8". The black-and-white cards are blank-backed and unnumbered. Although issued by National Chicle, the name of the company does not appear on the cards.  The set includes individual player portraits with facsimile autographs, multi-player cards, and action photos. The cards, known in the hobby as "Fine Pen" because of the thin style of writing used for the facsimile autographs, were originally available as an in-store premium.
