Always regarded as being a 1928-29 release, the Paulin’s Candy V128-2 hockey card set consisting of actually hail from a couple years prior according to Bobby Burell’s “Vintage Hockey Collector” price guide, inserted into Paulin’s Premium Hockey Bars during the 1926-27 season. Up for grabs here, is this group of sixteen (16) 1928-29 Paulin’s Candy V128-2 specimens including those of Harold McMunn and Nick Wasnie. Displaying black and white images over the front with a redemption offer on the back, the 1 3/8” x 2 5/8” inch cards present in this group are found in a fairly uniform condition range of G to VG+. For the notable cards of McMunn and Wasnie, McMunn’s offering shows rounded corners and light toning throughout that is heavier along the edges on the back while Wasnie’s card has corner dings but sports a creasing going across the entire width of the card near the bottom. For the rest of the group, only one other card joins that of McMunn in terms of being uncreased, being that of 86-Jimmies while 13 other cards are paired with Wasnie’s specimen, showing creases and other flaws such as soiling and stains including cards number 31, 33 (x2 – both with multiple creases and one with an edge ding while the other has foxing), 47 (staining), 49 (multiple creases), 52 (light creases and foxing on the reverse), 58 (staining and surface scratches), 62 (multiple light creases and a stain at the bottom front), 63 (multiple creases, bottom edge ding and staining/soiling), 66 (multiple creases and light soiling on reverse), 72 (multiple creases and soiling), 73 (multiple creases) and 77 (multiple creases with light foxing on the front).
