One of the hottest vintage sets going is this fantastic multi-sport issue from the Goudey Gum Co, famous for the baseball issues of the 1930s. There are four hockey cards in the set, which also features the biggest names in the Golden Age of Sports. HOFer Ivan "Ching" Johnson (mis-ID'd as "Irvin") was a tough defender who played 11 NHL seasons. He saw active duty in WW I, and as a side note, according to Wikipedia, while in France: "In November 1917 he was admitted to hospital for venereal disease, and spent 84 days there, and on June 22, 1918, was awarded the Good Conduct Badge". One would assume the award had nothing to do with the affliction. Graded a nice 3 VG by PSA!
