1936 National Chicle R313, Fine Pens ⭐ Pittsburgh Pirates
I finally completed my Pittsburgh Pirates Team Set for the 1936 National Chicle R313, Fine Pens set.
Four Hall of Famers in the 10-card set: Honus Wagner, Pie Traynor, Arky Vaughan, and Waite Hoyt.
These cards were premium cards, sold at sundry, drug stores, and 5 & Dime Shops across American.
They are photographs printed on very thin and condition sensitive paper so it's nearly impossible to find raw versions in high grade condition today.

1936 National Chicle R313 Fine Pen Premium ⭐ Honus Wagner
I bought this card raw when I got back into the hobby and sent it in for grading about 8 months later.
I knew about as much about grading then as I know now....nothing.😂
But I love this card from Honus Wagner's playing days, even it if was as a coach.

1936 National Chicle R313, Fine Pens 'DiMaggio Slams It' ⭐
On November 21, 1934, the NY Yankees famously purchased Joe DiMaggio's contract from the San Francisco Seals of the Pacific Coast League.
This card is considered by many in the hobby to be one of Joe DiMaggio's rookie cards.
This card is one of my all-time favorites - the image is perfect.
This photo was taken in one of his first Spring Training games and is one of, if not the first press photo of Joe DiMaggio in action in a NY Yankee uniform.
Notice that he is wearing #18, which is the number he was assigned in Spring Training, before he took up #5 early in his rookie season.

1936 National Chicle R313, Fine Pens⭐ Honus Wagner
This card, from Wagner's active MLB days as a coach, can be found at an affordable price, especially in lower grades like this one.
These cards are rather made of rather thin stock and very condition sensitive, but it amazes me that you can still pick these up at a reasonable price, even HOFers.
