Description: This scarce card is one in a series of 39 cards issued in 1951 in Canada by PARKHURST PRODUCTS Limited of 11 Wabash Ave Toronto Ontario. The series is listed on Burdicks American Card Catalogue as series V339-3, and is entitled “COLOR COMICS CARDS” The front features a color image of one of 6 different Comic Strips popular at the time (Dick Trace, Popeye, Abbie & Slatts, Terry and the Pirates, The Captain and the Kids, and Ella Cinders) There are three different variations of backs for this series. One that featured advertising and Premium offer from Frostade Drinks, another that featured the Star Weekly newspapers. and another that was issued completely blank.. Although there is no mention of the Parkhurst company on the card I have seen the wrapper/box that these card were originally distributed in and it does mention the Parkhurst Name. This card is #30 in the series and features THE KING from the THE CAPTAIN AND THE KIDS Series ofComics AND IS THE Frostade premium Back Variant.. The Card measures 2 3/4 inches by 1 7/8 inches approximately. The card does have some corner creasing and edge wear. I have scanned the front and back of the card fairly large so you can determine the condition for yourself. I 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.
