1964 BOBBIE MILOU GUM, EDITION RIZLA, TOKIO 1964 #44 TEAM USA BASKETBALL (BELGIUM)
These Belgian Bobbie Milou Bubble Gum cards featured images from the 1964 Olympic games in Tokyo. The accompanying album, Tokio 1964, was issued by Rizla, a tobacco rolling paper company that still operates today. I'm not sure why they co-branded this release or how the cards and album were distributed. There are 3 versions of the card backs. 1 in French, 1 in Dutch, and one in both languages. This example features both languages. There were 160 total cards in the set, with this card featuring the U.S.A. team being the only basketball card.
