Description: This rare card is one in a series of 32 cards issued in Canada by the SARATOGA PRODUCTS COMPANY of Toronto Ontario Canada. One was inserted into each package of their GOLDEN SARATOGA POTATO CHIPS. Although no guide that I know of lists them or provides an actual date of issue, because of the style of the Aviation Planes features on it, and the fact that most of the descriptions on the backs of the cards from this series mention Action versus German Planes, I have assumed that they were issued around the World War 2 Era. The front of the card features a black and white image of either a Canadian British or U.S.A. Fighter, Trainer or Reconnaissance Airplane, while the back features a fairly lengthy description of the subject, with advertising for the Saratoga product. This card is number 25 in the series and features a Boulton-Paul Defiant Fighter . The Card measures 3 5/16 inches by 2 7/16 inches approximately. The card is free from creases with only the slightest bit of corner wear. I have scanned the front and back of the card fairly large so you can determine the condition for yourself. THESE CARDS WERE NEVER ISSUED IN THE U.S. and are extremely rare. Due to the lower population in Canada than in the US, print runs in Canada were much smaller compared with American Cards. (Because of this the majority of all Canadian non sports cards are far scarcer than card issued in the USA and UKI will be trying to list several EARLY TRADE & TYPE CARDS over the next few days (spread across different categories), including one or two that are unrecorded in any guide, that were put given away with Tobacco, Cigarettes , Caramel, Candy, Gum, Chocolate, Bread Coffee Tea Cereal and other products, covering such diverse subjects as Native American Indians , Baseball , Football, Boy Scouts, Ice Hockey, Golf, Presidents of the United States, NCAA and IVY League Colleges and Universities, Dog Breeds, Circus themes and many more.
