Farmer matt Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Hello to you all, Many years ago when I was very young, the elderly widow who then lived next door gifted me her husband's cigarette cards , collected in period at the expense of his lungs. Turned up in a rummage so I thought you guys might be interested. cards1 by Matt Farmer, on Flickr cards2 by Matt Farmer, on Flickr cards3 by Matt Farmer, on Flickr cards4 by Matt Farmer, on Flickr Sadly not the full set, but probably unique now in having passed through so few hands. Regards, Matt 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOUSTON Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Matt, They are quite worthwhile holding on to them. I believe some cigarette cards are in a British museum and can be valuable. Your thread reminds ME of another similar thread on another forum.... WW1 Military Motors - 1916 set x 50 cards - Page 2 - Other Equipment - The Great War (1914-1918) Forum https://www.greatwarforum.org/topic/173218-ww1-military-motors-1916-set-x-50-cards/page/2/ I think you need to keep them in a pristine manner... They are getting rarer as depict an era long gone together with those vehicles etc... Thank you for sharing yoyr collection. You were gifted a lovely collection . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsman Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 I believe you can get special plastic sachets to keep such things in which are UV stable and will not stick, leach the ink etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
