D382 Tarzan Thoro Bread Overview

The D382 Tarzan Thoro Bread (sometimes called Tarzan Bread) set includes black and white cards.

Fronts of the cards include a player image as well as his name. The backs include a brief mention of the advertiser, Tarzan Thoro Bread, and the slogan ‘Tarzan Thoro Bread builds champions.’ The backs also have a brief biography of the player.

Despite being one of the later pre-war issues, the cards are incredibly scarce compared to even earlier sets and a complete checklist is not even known with new cards still having been discovered in recent years.

Some of these have been found with red stickers and the word ‘TROPHY’ printed on the backs of them as shown here. However, it is unclear if that was a one-time ‘variation’ made by a single collector of if true variations of these cards existed with the sticker.

The checklist on this issue continues to expand. New cards have been found in recent years and seeing more discoveries would not at all be a surprise.
