Description: The ungraded card has a verticle crease through the center and some light wear.The card measures roughly 3.75" x 2.75". Please review the attached pictures to assist with the condition and content of the card. The 1954 Stark & Wetzel cards were a promotional campaign where an Indianapolis 500 Winners card would be inserted in the packaging of one of their meat products. There are a total of 37 cards in this set, and they are very rare. As of this posting, a total of 49 cards have been submitted to PSA for grading, and only a single Rene Thomas card. Rene Thomas was born in France in 1886 and would make four trips to compete in the Indianapolis 500. He won the 1914 race in his first attempt, driving the Delage. Thomas was also involved with land speed records and aviation competitions. He returned to Indy in 1973 as a passenger in the car he drove to victory during parade laps. He passed away in 1975 at the age of 89. Please review the other racing items I have listed at the eBay store, The Checkered Past.
