Description: This fantastic tobacco card (also know as a Cigarette Card ) was issued by the KINNEY BROS. TOBACCO Co. as an insert premium in their brands of Tobacco and Cigarettes during 1889. This cards is from a fairly rare series of 25 cards entitled , “FAMOUS GEMS OF THE WORLD” and is designated as series N218 in the American Card Catalogue . The front of the card features a colorful image of a Gemstone and a beautiful woman who is supposed to be representing whichever area or country the gemstone came from. The back features a list of the 25 cards in the series, and an advertising for Kinney’s HIGH CLASS CIGARETTES. The Lithography for the card is exceptional . This card features THE BLACK PEARL OF INDIA. The Card measures 2 ¾ inches by 1 ½ inches approximately. The card does have some very small print chips to the front, a small spot of print loss to the back and some corner and edge wear. It is free from major creases. I have scanned the cards fairly large for you to be able to judge condition for yourself. This card would make an excellent gift for anyone interested in GEMSTONES and JEWLERY. Don't miss out on this 135 year old piece (a true AMERICAN antique). I will be trying to list several EARLY TRADE & TYPE CARDS over the next few days (spread across different categories), including one or two that are unrecorded in any guide, that were put given away with Tobacco, Cigarettes , Caramel, Candy, Gum, Chocolate, Bread Coffee Tea Cereal and other products, covering such diverse subjects as Native American Indians , Baseball , Football, Boy Scouts, Ice Hockey, Golf, Presidents of the United States, NCAA and IVY League Colleges and Universities, Dog Breeds, Circus themes and many more.
