This lot contains 4 x cards from the 1936-37 World Wide Gum hockey set. The set, which was actually released in 1937, is a very low population issue in the SGC and PSA databases. There are 5 or less of these four examples that have been graded by SGC. The set features NHL players and players from the Quebec Senior loop. Included here is #67 Stewart Evans RC (1.5 FR), a hard-nosed defenseman who played 367 NHL games in the 1930s; #98 Dutch Gainor (2 GD) who gained some momentary fame with the Boston Bruins in the late 1920s, and who oddly by the time this set was issued was playing out west in the PCHL (perhaps that's why there is no team mentioned on the card back); #117 Rene Boudreau (2 GD) a member of the Quebec Aces, and #131 Maurice "Morris" Bastien (2 GD), of the Montreal Royals, both from the Quebec league.
