Stare at the gruesome scene. Stare at the bodies. Stare at the explosions, this ongoing scene of war. Before there was television coverage, the horrors of war were captured on 2 1/2 x 3” trading cards. To say they were popular would be an understatement. They were hugely successful and produced by the Philadelphia based Gum, Inc.company. One of the 288 original cards produced was this vivid scene. It became Card number 215. The explosive reds, the dramatic browns, the scenes of advancing tanks--this piece of original artwork has it all.
