1932 National Chicle Diamond Kings
15 April 2007In 1932, just prior to their first major set of cards, National Chicle of Springfield, Mass. issued three test cards. Known as the Diamond Kings, these baseball cards are considered premiums and look just like the R327 National Chicle effort issued from 1934 to 1936.
Each card is 3-1/2" by 5-3/8" and was sold as premiums at small-town candy stores and drug stores. The idea was to promote the forthcoming R327 set.
The fronts of the Diamond King cards show a full-color portrait of the player in uniform. The backs are blank.
