Bastos Film Stars

Issuing Company: J. Bastos, Oran, Algeria Country of Issue: France Year of Issue: 1938 Color/B&W: B&W Number of Cards in Set: 52 Card Size: 1 3/8" x 2 9/16" Issued as insert with what product: Cigarettes

Notes: Unnumbered. This set has the same back design as the Bastos Actresses set.

Date info: Deanna Durbin first appeared in films in 1936. Michele Morgan first appeared in films in 1935 but wasn't credited as Michele Morgan until 1937. Based on this and a check of the other stars in the set, I am placing a 1938 date on this set, as that seems to be about when all the stars would fit, though the date could be off by a bit.

Thanks to Mike Prior for help with this checklist.
