The 1933 Rittenhouse Candy (E285) baseball set consists of 52 cards, each 1-7/16" x 2-1/4". Produced by the Rittenhouse Candy Company of Philadelphia, the uniquely designed artifacts resemble miniature playing cards and were designed to double as both a collectible and a usable deck. The front features the players face centered on the card within a playing card shape (heart, diamond, spade, club). Their full name is printed on the front of the card. The cards were printed in either red, orange, green, or blue ink. Each one is printed with a large, bold capital letter on the reverse and when put together, spell out “Rittenhouse Candy Co.” and enable the owner to claim a desirable toy premium.
