1965 Topps Battle Cards #40 The Flaming Sea Norm Saunders WW2 Gum Card

Description: Here We have the #40 card entitled The Flaming Sea from the 1965 “Battle Cards” series issued by Topps Gum Co in the USA. This set is renowned for its extremely graphic and violent images used in the card art. The art was Done by Norm Saunders who also did some of the Art for the 1962 Mars Attacks Card set and the the 1962 Civil War News Card set, both of which were know for their graphic nature as well. This series highlights the absolute terrors of War, and Norm Saunders did not steer away from very realistic illustrations of the Horrors that war brings. In fact when ABC GUM issued this series of cards in the United Kingdom, they removed several cards and censored others. This card does have some corner and edge wear, but it is free from major creases I think it displays nicely. I HAVE SCANNED FRONT AND BACK, FAIRLY LARGE FOR YOU TO BE ABLE TO JUDGE CONDITION FOR YOURSELF WHAT YOU SEE IN THE SCANS ARE WHAT YOU WILL BE GETTING. I will be listing more card from this series over the next few days. I will be trying to list several EARLY TRADE & TYPE CARDS over the next few days (spread across different categories), including one or two that are unrecorded in any guide, that were put given away with Tobacco, Cigarettes , Caramel, Candy, Gum, Chocolate, Bread Coffee Tea Cereal and other products, covering such diverse subjects as Native American Indians , Baseball , Football, Boy Scouts, Ice Hockey, Golf, Presidents of the United States, NCAA and IVY League Colleges and Universities, Dog Breeds, Circus themes and many more.

Due to my work schedule and distance to the post office I am only able to ship Monday Mornings. If I haven’t received payment for an item by Sunday evening, the item will have to wait until the next Monday to go out. Its unfortunate but unavoidable.
