1935-36 Diamond matchbook U3-1

Number of Cards

1935-36 Diamond Matchbooks has 156 covers, which there are 23 Cubs players.

Size of Cards

Matchbooks measure approximately 1 1/2" by 4 1/2" (when completely folded out).

Basic Features

The front of the matchbook showcases a image of a baseball player striking a pose. The borders are available in red, green, or blue. On the back, there is a brief career biography, while the inside remains blank. What sets this set apart from others is the reference to the 1934 and 1935 seasons in the biography, along with a slightly altered checklist. This set includes variations of pictures, one of which I will display below.
