Description: This scarce card is one in a series of 50 cards issued in Canada by the HAMILTON Chewing Gum Company of Hamilton Ontario Canada. One was inserted into each 2Cent package of their Cowboy Gum. Although there are no brand or company identifiers on the card itself I have seen the wrapper from this series which indicates it as having been issued by the Hamilton Chewing Gum Company The Non Sports Bible list this series as V290 in Burdicks American Card Catalogue. No guide I am aware of gives a definite year of issue. However I have always assumed that it is some time around the 1930’s or 40’s era Each card depicts some aspect of cowboy and wild west life. The images used are the same as the ones used by the American Tobacco Company in their T53 series (as well as others card sets such as Weber Bread and Ganong Chocolates Company. The back provides a description of the action shown of the front of the card written in both French & English. This card is number 17 in the series, “ His Best Friend” (the colt 45) . The Card measures 3 1/4 inches by 2 1/2 inches approximately. The card does have creasing. 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.
