1920s COLUMBIA Costume & FLAG of NATIONS Card PIONEER Bread D58 lk R52 Gum :
$14.99

This card wasissued by the PIONEER BAKING CO, of Paterson New Jersey. One was wrapped withtheir brand of Pullman Bread . Althoughthis particular brand is not mentioned it does use the same images as seriesD58 in Burdick’s American Card Catalogue.I have not been able to find a date of issue in any guide that I amaware of but I speculate the series to have been issued some time during the1920’s. The front of the card featuresan illustration of a man or woman wearing the tradition costume of the Nationholding a flag of the Nation.Interestingly the image used is similar to that used by the BaltimoreChewing Gum co on there R52 series, with the exception that this D58 seriesuses a full length image, while the R52 Gum issue uses only the head andshoulders for their smaller size card. The back provides information about the featuredcountry as well as advertising. This card features The Flag of COLUMBIA . The Cardmeasures 5 7/16 inches by 3 3/16 inchesapproximately. The card does have some areas of discoloration, one edge is factory rough cut. I have scanned the front and back of the card fairly large soyou can determine the condition for yourself . This is a scarce series. Bread cards are one of the last properlycatalogued frontiers of cardcollecting. With such fantastic and wellknown illustrators doing the art work, diversity of series, and the fact that theyare scarce with many of the issues being regional issues only, with very low print runs, bread cards are agreat collectable that are bound to increase in popularity as time goes on.
