A local antique shop has a complete "cycling" collection of Player's Cigarette cards from England. The 50 cards are mounted between glass, the cards are prevented from moving by the 50 cutouts in the mat and the glass. Framed. The shop specializes in cigarette card collections....I don't know anything about them. Just passing the info along in case anyone is interested. $350.00.
One problem: the owner says they do not ship, have had too many problems with damage.
If anyone is interested act quickly as they are taking this piece to an antiques show this weekend....
