JACQUES CHOCOLAT LES SPORTS ILLUSTRES SERIE S TYPE 1 (BELGIUM)
1933
The Jacques Les Sports Illustres was a large set of 240 cards featuring a variety of sports each broken into their own series. There were 24 basketball cards, which were the "S" series. There were 2 types, Type 1 with the word "Basket-Ball" inside of the borders, and a Type 2 that included similar illustrations for all 24 cards with the text within the border, using a different font and reverse layout. In total, there are 48 basketball cards between both Types in the series. These cards were meant to be adhered to a accompanying album, so they are hard to find without adhesive/residue on the back.
