1955 Trump 6 Set

    Description:  If I am not mistaken, these menko come in sheets with cartoon characters and other popular stars of the day.  The two that I have have jagged edges indicating they were separated from a sheet.  Not much else is known about this set apart from that.  Quality isn't that great on these.
