An outstanding near-complete set (90/108) of 1933-1934 National Chicle Sky Birds cards, a popular and colorful set depicting early aviators and their pioneering planes. Highlights include: #20 Eddie Rickenbacker (VG-EX), #36 Charles Lindbergh (EX), #48 Amelia Earhart (VG-EX), #49 Orville Wright (EX+), and #72 Spirit of St. Louis (EX+). The lot features the entire first series from 1933 honoring World War I fighter pilots (cards #1-24), and is missing the scarce 'high number' run at the end of the set. Missing cards are #s: 63, 84-87, 94, and 97-108.
