Description

Complete set of twenty-four "Big Thrill" booklets issued by Goudey Gum Co. in 1934. This is one of the all-time classic 1930s nonsport sets. In addition, this set naturally has a great crossover appeal to both comic and character collectors. Four different characters (Buck Jones, Buck Rogers, Dick Tracy, and Tailspin Tommy) are featured in six-card subsets in this rare 1930s issue. This is a very attractive set of these somewhat fragile eight-page booklets which are naturally so susceptible to damage. Condition ranges from Gd to Ex-Mt (averaging Vg-Ex), with a couple lesser. The "Big Thrill" booklets are among the most desirable of all 1930s Goudey issues. This is only the second complete set we have ever offered! Total 24 booklets.
