Notes: Checklist incomplete. These large cards depict famous actresses of the day, such as Marlene Dietrich, wearing stockings made of Bemberg silk. The series is called "Das Ideal der Frau" which translates as "The Ideal Woman". Each card has a photographic image, framed by a single-coloured, art-deco style pattern, with a different pattern for each of the series. All cards have rounded corners. Eight series (I-VIII) were issued, with eight cards in each series, for a total of 64 cards. No album was planned or issued. Bemberger also issued another set of smaller, unnumbered cards, listed separately.
