Uncle Sam and Homeland Defense Gum, Inc. - 1941
Notes: The set is usually considered a single series, which may be unfortunate for collectors. The first "subset" is 96 cards and was assigned the R157 reference number. The Home Defense subset, reference number R158, was published soon after and is very much more scarce, especially cards numbered 121-144. In 1984 WTW Productions made a reprint of the high-number cards. Card fronts have color artwork, while card backs feature descriptive text.
