Damsels in Distress set

minibeers

Hey gang! I'm back after a break and wanted to see if anyone can help me with a custom set I'm working on. I call it Damsels in Distress. It consists of non-sports cards featuring buxom beauties being detained or threatened with someone coming to their rescue. I will post scans in the next few weeks of what I already have. As you can imagine, there are several in the Mars Attacks set and Topps Battle. I have most of those. I have one Batman card with a gal hanging from a limb. There are several 1940 Superman cards I have been outbid on that would fit. I have some Tarzan cards that fit, too.

So, if you have any cards featuring a damsel in distress, let me know. I like them raw and graded. My wife says I have issues. Again, I'll get them scanned soon. Here is one I'm looking for that I don't have from Tarzan's Savage Fury.



cheers,

Why would she say that?

Great idea for a set!


I would agree this "damsel" is in distress.

Thanks, Win. I hope I win that "Prize" soon. I'm high bidder on a raw one right now. Patience...

Picked up 3 different 1966 Tarzan cards from Mickey's today. All feature ladies needing savin'. Here is another cool one that I want.



Mickey's has this at $175. I'd go $100 for it. again, patience!

More to come!

Not sure if this helps, but here are a couple from the Outer Limits set:




Here are a couple from the Zorro set:



And then, there's this from the You'll Die Laughing set:


You should also be able to find a bunch of them in the Horrors of War set, you sad sadistic bastid.

BTW - welcome back - sounds like a pretty neat set idea.

Also, have you thought of or considered those '40's and '50's pulp magazines?
