do you know anything about sweet caporal cigarette cards?
i have a small collection {about 50} of sweet caporal cigarette cards with actresses on them. all of the cards i have have small triangular holes punched into them. some have just one hole while some have two. none of the photos of other such cards have these holes, so i know they weren't manufactured this way. also, the triangles are facing all sorts of ways, like they were done somewhat randomly. all the punches are at the tops of the cards. can anyone tell me what the punches are from, and why they were put there? was it to keep track of purchases, like a coffee club card where you buy so many and earn a freebie? that's all i can come up with.
and whoever reported me before and got this question deleted really needs to learn how to mind their own business. these cards are a collector's item, produced in the 1880's and i am legitimately searching for information about them. so butt out.
Ok, it would be nice if they are. But They are not in Mint Condition. I also can not find a date on these.They all Measure 3 3/4 inch x 1 3/4 inch. I can send you Pictures if you want. But not sure how that can be done on this forum. Here is the list.
