Description: This rare 1965 Review of Famous Racing Cars card from the "carbking" collection was a promotional item that does not have the weiner stains normally associated with a Marhoefer card. It is in excellent condition with no creases or tears and only very minor wear. It measures roughly 5" x 4". The back of this card does an excellent job of describing why this car was unique as part of the Indianapolis 500. Please review the pictures to assist with the condition and content of the card. THIS IS THE LAST 1937 WILBUR SHAW GILMORE SPECIAL SINGLE CARD AVAILABLE FROM THE "CARBKING" COLLECTION. The Marhoefer Meatpacking Company was founded in 1901 as the Kuhner Packing Company. The Marhoefer family would take over in 1945. Based in Muncie, Indiana, the company would aggressively advertise their sausages and hot dogs in conjunction with the local Indianapolis 500. There are only 10 cards in the 1965 Marhoefer Review of Famous Racing Cars set. They include: 1912 Joe Dawson/National #8 1914 Eddie Rickenbacker/Duesenberg #10 1915 Earl Cooper/Stutz #4 1925 Dave Lewis/Junior 8 #2 1937 Wilbur Shaw/Gilmore Special #6 1941 Al Miller/Miller Special #12 1946 Mel Hansen/Ross-Page Special #41 1951 Lee Wallard/Belanger Special #99 1952 Troy Ruttman/Agajanian Special #98 1964 Bobby Johns/Hurst Floor Shift Special #47 Please review the other racing items I have listed at the eBay store, The Checkered Past. I will combine shipping and provide a refund on shipping charges for anything over cost. Thanks!
