Issuing Company: Country of Issue: USA Year of Issue: 1917 Color/B&W: B&W Number of Cards in Set: Card Size: 1 3/4" x 2 3/8" Issued as insert with what product: Cigarettes |
Notes: Checklist probably incomplete. There are currently 95 cards on this checklist, while the full checklist is probably 100 cards. The American Card Catalog number for this set is T86.
These cards can be found with an ad for either Egyptian Oasis or Piedmont cigarettes on the back. The Egyptian Oasis cards can be found with "Factory No. 171, 1st Dist. Cal." or "Factory No. 25, 2nd Dist. Va." on the back. The Piedmont cards can be found with "Factory No. 171, 1st Dist. Cal." on the back.
The cards with Piedmont backs are narrower in width and the photos are cropped narrower than the Egyption Oasis cards. This is probably due to the Piedmont cigarette boxes being narrower than the Egyptian Oasis boxes.
After doing an extensive search of the Internet Database for the actors and their studios, it is clear this set was issued in about 1917.
Thanks to Mark Hellmann for helping with this checklist.
