Description: This unique Tobacco card (also referred to as a Cigarette Card) was issued by the KINNEY BROS Tobacco Co. as an insert premium in their brands of Tobacco and Cigarettes during 1890. It is one from a fairly scarce series of cards entitled, “ NOVELTIES” and is listed as series N228 in Burdick’s American Card Catalogue . This is known as a TYPE 3 Variation I believe, which features a young ladies cameo featured on a die-cut novelty background. There are 3 different variations of the backs for this type. (“75 styles” back variation as well as 25 and 50 styles back variations issued) The one features a Jester, and is a 25 back variation. The exact measurements of the card are difficult to determine due to it being a die cut. However it’s approximate measurements are 1 ½ inches 2 3/4 inches approximately. The card does have some edge wear, but it is free from major creases I have scanned the card fairly large both back and front for you to be able to judge condition for your self. Don't miss out on this over 130 year old piece (a true AMERICAN antique). I will be trying to list several EARLY TRADE & TYPE CARDS over the next few days (spread across different categories), including one or two that are unrecorded in any guide, that were put given away with Tobacco, Cigarettes , Caramel, Candy, Gum, Chocolate, Bread Coffee Tea Cereal and other products, covering such diverse subjects as Native American Indians , Baseball , Football, Boy Scouts, Ice Hockey, Golf, Presidents of the United States, NCAA and IVY League Colleges and Universities, Dog Breeds, Circus themes and many more.
