O-Pee-Chee Film Stars

Issuing Company: O-Pee-Chee
Country of Issue: Canada
Year of Issue: 1940
Color/B&W: B&W
Number of Cards in Set: (unnumbered)
Card Size: 5" x 7"
Issued as insert with what product: Mail-in from Gum Company.

Notes: Checklist probably incomplete. Blank-backed. These do not say O-Pee-Chee on them anywhere, but they were issued by O-Pee-Chee. These can be found in two ways - with a line at the bottom that says "LITHOGRAPHED IN CANADA," or with no line at the bottom. Additionally, there is a related American set (R96) that has a line at the bottom that says "AQUATONED IN U.S.A." The Canadian version of these cards often has different movies mentioned in the captions than their counterparts from the USA. I believe the Canadian cards were issued after the USA versions, and that the captions were updated to show the latest films for the stars. Thanks to Bobby Robinson for a lot of help with this checklist.

Date info: I checked all the movies for these cards, and they were all issued between 1937 and 1940. I am placing a 1940 date on this set.
