Recently came across this at a show. Thought it was interesting. Don't know much about it. What do ya'll think?

I never seen any thing like that before, but it kind of brings back memories of the baseball cards in the chewing gum, Maybe it's something like that only for cigarettes.

I also collect old cigarette cards but have not seen that one.

Will have to hunt around for it now!


Thanks Nighthawk!

Oh, I remember the baseball cards alright. Especially the chewing gum! The flavor would only last about 20 seconds or so, but man did I love that chewing gum!!!

   I CAME ACROSS A PILE OF SILK PICTURES OF FLAGS AND GIRLS IN THEIR NATIVE COSTUMES IN AN ANTIQUE MARKET IN GLADWIN,MICHIGAN A FEW YEARS AGO---I HAVE TRIED TO IDENTIFY THEM ESPECIALLY SINCE SOME ARE FROM COUNTRIES THAT NO LONGER EXIST---THEY WERE IN CIGARETTE PACKAGES AROUND 1901--I BELIEVE THE WORDS ON THE EDGES WERE "NEBOS"
  HAS ANYONE HEARD OF THESE OR MAYBE THEIR VALUE?  I HAVE ABOUT 20
