I inherited a huge collection of cigarette,tea and trade cards a few years ago from a collector / dealer relative. I had no personal interest in them, so I decided to sell them on Ebay, but the time needed to investigate, catalogue and list them individually was prohibitive so they have sat in storage boxes for a few years. My wife is losing patience with me, so I have decided to sell the collection in large lots. This is the 'Mixed Tobacco' lot which totals more than1,200 cards with more than 1,100 in protective sleeves. I separated the original collection into Cigarette Cards and Tea & Trade Cards. Unless a very few have slipped through my sorting, then the only brands in this lot are those listed below. There will, of course, be duplicates in the lot and, inevitably, the condition of the cards varies, but I think the condition is generally very good overall considering their age. Please contact me if you would like additional information.
