Fans and collectors of pre-war material who have yet to enter into the Triumph postcard world may well want to consider the terrific opportunity to do so here via this starter set that includes six (6) of the ten (10) making up the checklist with all having been graded by PSA. Supplements with boys magazines in Great Britain were the postcards, with get this, not a single crease detected in any of the offered examples. We often say “no unsightly creases” but can claim “no creases whatsoever” here. Paced by examples of HOFers like Eddie Shore (PSA EX 5), Ching Johnson (PSA EX-MT 6) and Roy Worters (PSA VG-EX+ 4.5), the other half of the group includes the likes of Nick Metz (PSA EX 5), Sylvio Mantha (PSA VG-EX 4 - misspelled "Slyvo") and Lawrence Northcott (PSA VG-EX 4). All displaying beautifully with no handwritten notations affecting any of the included postcards, all the PSA holders they are housed in remain in good condition with scratches/scuffs over both sides of all six (6), heaviest on the Worthers example. Additionally, also included with the six (6) postcards is an original Triumph folder, or “wallet” which had served as the protector of the post cards before they were graded. Displaying stunning graphics both inside and out, a checklist is found on the interior right side. Remaining in excellent condition with light handling wear as well as edge wear observed throughout the piece, creating is present, heaviest at the bottom right corner where the spine has split (extending up about 1.5" in length), a tear is seen at the top of both the front and reverse in the same place while on the back is a small one along the bottom as well.
