This set of rare 96 Nature Cards painted by Lynn Bogue Hunt that were given toschool children between 1929 and 1934. They are in the original sleeves and are a wonderful piece of Coke Ephemera. This is my last complete set in the box, and as usual I'm starting them low without a reserve! Just in time for the holidays!! In the 2000 Petretti's collectors guide, these cards individually listed for $1 each in good condition without the sleeve; Soooo, what do you imagine they are worth almost 8 years later their sleeves box; AND In EXCELLENT CONDITION? Hey, you can tell they're old; they were MADE IN THE U.S.A . which is printed on the bottom right of each card. Now, that (thanks to greedy politicians) you just don't see anymore! The cards come in 8 packs of 12 in brown paper sleeves similar to the old lunch bags. Except for some typical, minor aging on the cards, they are MINT! The almost 80 year old box is in great shape; not torn or missing any of the six end flaps. Even the sleeves holding the cards are in great shape! Considering that the box and cards are almost 80 years old, and I think it's amazing that they lasted this long, together, in any decent condition at all! PERFECT PATINA!! The cards are MINT and come in the following categories: SERIES I- "EARTH AND AIR AND SKY". SERIES II- "MAN'S CLOSEST FRIENDS AND MOST INVETERATE ENEMIES" SERIES III-"TREES AND OTHER PLANTS USEFUL TO MAN" SERIES 1V- "SOME COMMON WILD FLOWERS" SERIES V"- "AMONG OUR FEATD FRIENDS" SERIES V1- "NATIVE WILD ANIMALS" SERIES VII- "LIFE IN AND AROUND THE WATER" SERIES VIII- "INSECTS, HELPFUL AND HARMFUL" The photos are of the actual cards and box in this auction and not from a stock photo. In the first photo you see the box opened on one end and the cards in their sleeves. The second photo features the box other side with series 5 out of the sleeve. In the second photo you can see the now famous Coke contour or "MAY WEST" bottle on the bottom of the card along with "Compliments of Coca Cola. Delicious and refreshing". is a description of the "Native Wild Animals" bundle: 1. THE RED FOX: 2. THE RACOON 3. THE OPOSSUM 4. THE RED SQUIRREL 5. THE SEA LION 6. THE BEAVER 7. THE MOOSE 8. THE VIRGINIA DEER 9. THE BUFFALO or BISON 10. THE TIMBER WOLF 11. THE BLACK BEAR 12. THE PANTHER All of the 96 cards are very colorful and descriptive. This is one fantastic rare piece of Coca Cola and American history, and a wonderful addition to any Coke collection! Don't let them get away! CHECK MY FEEDBACK!! Although I've been collecting Coke for years, and know my stuff, nobody is perfect, and if this set of cards is a reproduction, I will pay every single penny back to the high bidder, including postage! Unlike other sellers on Ebay, I will not ask any winner to pay shipping for items returned when the error is mine! YOU AS A BIDDER WILL NEVER HAVE TO PAY OUT ONE SINGLE PENNY WHEN IT'S MY ERROR! High bidder will pay s/h of $4.50 s/h in most of the U.S. Alaska and Hawaii would have to be adjusted accordingly. Insurance is not included but if requested, it will be added for exact cost. I do send out notification emails after my auctions. I save my Post Office receipts, and will give a full refund, including shipping and handling, if I receive a complaint that an item has not been received and I can't verify that an item was shipped to that zip code, around the time expected. INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS PLEASE CHECK FOR S/H COSTS PRIOR TO BIDDING. I accept Paypal, money orders and checks, and I will hold checks from winners with good feedback no longer than 3 working days prior to shipping.
