Notes: Checklist incomplete. The text translates roughly as 'Duquesne Competition, to the collectors who acquired all 65 Cinema cards numbered 1 to 65, they will be offered either a porcelain service of 74 pieces or 4 pairs of hemmed sheets'. With such a generous offer, it seems likely that some cards were short printed but it is unknown which ones they were. Unusually, the cards are dated as the competition closed at the end of December 1935. The back text is in French, so it is assumed that this set was issued in France.

These cards have the same front as the Dolomie Film Stars (Large Set), Felix Potin Vedettes Mondiales and Matte Fils Sets. Most of the cards appear to be the same in all checklists but not all.

Thanks to Richard Minns for helping with this checklist.
