The three regional Ice Cream sets bear a strong resemblance to the 1927 York Caramel (E210), differing only on their reverse sides. This article will discuss all the F50 ice cream cards, while the F50 Candle Company will not be addressed here.
Catalog Number
F50 Ice Cream
Number of Cards
1928 Ice Cream set had 60 cards, with 4 Cubs players although one player is sporting a Yankees hat
Size of Cards
Cards measure 1 3/8" x 2 1/2"
Basic Features
Each black-and-white photograph is framed by a slim black border, featuring the card number and the player's name at the bottom. Local ice cream producers are highlighted. The reverse side of Yuengling's card invites collectors to complete the set and exchange it for a $5.00 skooter. Additionally, Tharp and Harrington can receive a complimentary gallon of ice cream delivered to them. This is an excellent offer, especially considering that such deals are rare nowadays.
