Forty-Eight 1930s Japanese Navy (IJN) Cigarette Trading Cards
Cardstock Paper Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc+
Sold
Cigarette trading cards were often given away with a pack of smokes. This was very popular in the early 20th century, and many companies issued entire series and even books to place and display your collection. This collection is 48 Imperial Japanese Navy and 21 non-navy commericial cars. The IJN cards show many battleships, light cruisers, destroyers, submarines, naval flags, early aircraft carriers (Akagi or Kaga) with biplanes, and some other miscellaneous color ones that are very attractive. The cards are made of thin paper and have been glued to the back sheet. I did not try to remove them, and I did not count the badly torn card as one of the forty-eight.
