Notes: Checklist may not be complete. These cards contain a rubber stamp on the back that says "Knotty Pine Gift Shop, Fishermans Wharf, 2746 Taylor St., San Francisco, Calif." It looks like the cards were sold as a group as a souvenir at the gift shop. Based on the stars on the cards, it looks like they were issued in about 1930.
These cards have also been seen with blank backs. It is likely they were also sold in other places with blank backs or with a different back stamp or other printing on the backs.
Most of the cards seen have the names at the bottom right in hand written all caps text. The Lon Chaney and Buster Keaton cards were found in a group with other cards from this set, but show the names in large signature text with a greeting above the name.
