Antique Halloween Dance Card With Cats

The graphics on this great dance card are both simple and compelling. The cats seem to be focused on having fun. Dance cards as a sub-genre of small paper are uncommon. The condition on this one is super - as are the sellers! 

One Vintage Halloween ROSEN 50s TRIX OR TREATS sucker card MINT unused condition

Rosen made three distinct sets of their Trix or Treats cards. Set A consists of six cards, while Sets B and C consist of five cards. This is a card from Set B, the best of the three sets, produced during the late 1940s into the early 1950s. The RSIN for any one from this set is 3 and guide value is $70. Turn to pages 90-91 to see all cards from all sets. 

Vintage Halloween E.Rosen Sucker Holder Card # 5 c1950's

This is one of five cards comprising a complete set of what I call "Set B" made by Rosen in the late 1940s-early 1950s. All of the cards from this set are desirable and somewhat hard to find. Arguably, the best card is the one showing dancing skeletons, but this card is quite appealing in its own way. All cards from all sets can be seen on pages 90-92. 

09/20 Update: This sold for a strong $103.51.
