1956 Topps/GUM Inc. ADVENTURE w/Boxing

Checklist/Values/Prices Guide/Set Info/Information

1956 Adventure cards

Issued by Gum Products Inc., this 100-card set covered a variety of subjects. Featuring mostly non-sport like military or wild life, it also had a few sports related cards. The most famous being Max Schmeling's card, removed very early from the set for featuring the Nazi symbol, making it by far the scarcest and most expensive in the set.

The information on back of many cards was somewhat spotty and sometimes wrong. Card #39 claims Yamamoto was shot down in 1953 rather than 1943. Another in demand and interesting card is Boston Red Sox Rookie sensation Harry Agganis and mention of his death on back.

1954 Topps Scoops

1954 Topps Scoops squeezes 1,000 years of history into a sharp (156) card set. The cards, slightly smaller 2-1/16" x 2-15/16", were released in (2) (78) card series. Each card had a colorful painting and caption with date on front. Some were issued with a scratch-off area meant hiding the headline so some cards are found with and without the coating. 1954 Scoops covered many major events & people throughout history. Mostly a non-sports set, many top sports stars like Babe Ruth, Jesse Owens, Notre Dame's Four Horsemen, Joe Louis, Bob Feller and Ben Hogan were included.
Backs are similar to a newspaper's front page with newspaper's name, headline, date & location at top. The set seemed to focus on disasters like the San Francisco Earthquake, Fire Sweeps Chicago, Rome Burned, Pompeii Destroyed (#91); and wars: Battleship Maine Blown Up, Alamo Falls, U.S. Troops Reach France, World War II Begins, Victory in Europe & Napoleon Loses at Waterloo plus many other events that shaped the world.
