Description: The ungraded card from the "carbking" collection has no creases and light corner 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 Jimmy Murphy card. Jimmy Murphy was born in San Francisco in 1894 and began his career as a riding mechanic for drivers such as Milton, DePalma, and Rickenbacker. As a driver, Murphy won the French Grand Prix in 1921 and the Indianapolis 500 in 1922. In his Championship career, he ran 52 races and won 17 of them. He was leading (and would win) the AAA Championship standings when a crash at the Syracuse Mile in 1924 ended his life.
