Does any collector know which series of Sicle Airplane cards Silverwoods Dairies included in a pouch at the side of the ice cream novelties like Fudgesicles and Creamsicles that it sold in 1962 or 1963? The cards were about 4 1/2" X 2 1/4" and were B & W.

Evidently my memory was faulty regarding one detail concerning the Canadian SICLE Air Force cards. They were in colour! The Canadian set is an abbreviated 25 card version of the U.S. SICLE set but featured mainly the missiles and rockets. The size was the same 3 3/4" X 2 3/8" but the Canadian cards did not have a caption naming the plane at the bottom of each card as did the U.S. cards. Also the Canadian cards were printed bilingually on the back in black ink as opposed to the U.S. cards which were printed in red.
I found the above info in Chris Watson's Non-Sport Bible.
I have about a half dozen of the U.S. SICLE cards but I'd like to complete both sets.
On a related note, does anyone collect the Supertest Jet Plane cards from the early fifties?
