=============================================================================
The backs of the cards list 50 "countries" but only 36 cards exist.
PSA Registry has 2 sets complete at 36 cards "countries" match in both sets.
While not many cards from this set have been graded by PSA and SGC, they
have both graded at least one from each of these 36 "countries" and no others.
Fifteen cards listed on the N238 backs do not exist:
Annam, Baden, Cambodge [sic], Chili, Germany, Hesse Darmstadt,
Japan, Jerusalem (see note below), Luxembourg, Mecklenburg Schwerin,
Oldenburg, Saxe Weimar, Switzerland, United States, Wurtemburg
Correct complete (36 cards) checklist:
Sweden, China, Turkey, Italy, England, France, Spain, Russia, Austria, Greece
Bavaria, Roumania [sic], Portugal, Belgium, Persia, Norway, Denmark, India,
Holland, Brazil, Mexico, Venezuela, Siam, Peru, Servia [sic], Ecuador,
Colombia [sic], Sandwich Isles, Canada, Honduras, Guatemala, Bolivia,
Bulgaria, Montenegro, Holy Land, Royal Saxony
The backs cite a “Jerusalem” card which does not exist.
There is a known-but-unchecklisted “Holy Land” card which sometimes gets
cited as its replacement, although I don’t think this is correct since
Jerusalem still belonged to the Ottoman Empire in the late 19th century.
