Card Identification Forum

Hi,

Here is the 2nd Mystery card of the day.

Let me pick your mind...

I have been unsuccessful in finding any information related to this card/set.

Only found a few "similar looking" under British-American Tobacco [1, 2].

I will update if I come across anything, but maybe someone else will have better luck.

I am not familiar with this set but reading the back says “STARS”. So im thinking movie stars from the silent black and white movies circa 1900-1930 time frame

thats my best suggestion i am leaning towards 1900-1910 just by the way she is dressed. Hope that is some kind of help for you

I Found it,

Page 25 of the C & T C Catalogue

Star Series - Beauties, RB 118/77, series of 25 cards

No exact dating, except the fact that all series were issued between 1890 - 1902, too bad, can't win each time

Glad you were able to find it. I do believe I see it now in that American Card Catalog [1] I referenced in your prior mystery thread. Page 17, T422 Star Series (25) girl and horoscope, TW77. I failed to look outside of the T400 grouping for actresses and girls.
