Description: This scarce card was issued in Canada by the Nabisco Shredded Wheat Company of Canada. One was inserted into each box Nabisco Shreddies and Nabisco Rice Flakes.. Burdick list this series as FC26 in his American Card Catalog. The series was issued during 1953-54. The title of the series is “ Nabisco Sports Cards” The series contains 70 different cards in total. Each card features an image of an instructional lesson about various sports, including amongst others Hockey, Baseball and Football. The instructions are printed in both English and French. This is card number 11 in the Series and features a TENNIS scene. The card back features further detailed instructions provided by the Toronto Telegrams Sports writer Ted Reeve.The card measures 2 inches by 2 7/8 inches. The card has some lighter creasing and appears to be factory cut slightly askew at the top edge. I have scanned the front and back of the card fairly large so you can determine the condition for yourself. THESE CARDS WERE NEVER ISSUED IN THE U.S.A or UK Due to the lower population in Canada than in the US and UK, print runs in Canada were much smaller compared with American and British Cards. Because of this the majority of all Canadian cards are far scarcer than cards issued in the USA and UK. 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. If this doesn’t work for you I respectfully ask that you do not bid or buy. Thanks again. This will be mailed from the USA. Unfortunately Ebay’s Global Seller Program does not allow for combined shipments on international order
