Notes: Checklist incomplete. The backs mention that two different mail-in offers were available. If you sent in 5 cards and 50 cents, you would receive a 20-page album with space for 200 cards. If you sent in 10 cards and 50 cents, you would receive your choice of a large 8 x 10 hand-painted, mounted photograph of one of the cards in this set. There were two code letters on the back of each card that you were supposed to use when selecting the large card you wanted. It seems kind of odd that you had to send in your cards to get an album to hold the cards - who knows, maybe they returned the cards to you.
The checklist below is presented in both alphabetical order and letter order. The Schonwasser Bathing Beauties set also uses letters for its numbering scheme and the letters in that set are all different from the Film Stars cards. Sometimes these letters are intertwined, such as in the I letters, where II and IJ and IS-IZ are Film Stars, while IN-IR are Bathing Beauties.
Thanks to Tom Boblitt and Marty Krim for help with this checklist.
