Incredibly rare Philadelphia-area regional issue distributed by Sealtest Dairy. Each of 12 cards consisted of oversized cards (3 1/2" x 4 1/2") that doubled as stickers with peel-off backs. The cards are identical to the Lummis Peanut Butter cards issued in the same year. While the key cards to the issue are Richie Ashburn and Robin Roberts the remaining ten cards are valuable in their own right rarely found and with considerable bidder competition on the rare occasion that one becomes available. Cards from the issue in higher grades are considerably more rare with very few grading higher than EX. This example of Bill Nicholson has been graded NM 84 by SGC slight corner touches being the primary condition flaws with the card. Otherwise a very strong card from a rare regional set.
