1889 PLAYING CARD Tobacco Card KINNEY N220 Two Clubs SERIES 2 Cigarettes

Description

This playful  Tobacco Card  (also referr
ed
to as a Cigarette Card) was issu
ed
by the KINNEY BROS Tobacco Co. as an insert premium in their brands of HIGH CLASS Tobacco and Cigarettes during 1889 (as copyright
ed
on the card back) . It is one from a fairly scarce series of 53 cards entitl
ed
,  “HARLEQUIN CARD (2nd SERIES) ” N220 .  The front of the card is arrang
ed
in the form of a Playing Card , with the Symbols of the Suit incorporat
ed
into a whimsical image.  The back of the card features advertising for Kinney Cigarettes and list all of the other cards in the series by Suit.  This card features the TWO OF CLUBS   The card measures 2  ¾  inches by 1 ½ inches  approximately.   There are some spots of surface loss to the back corners.  However the card is free from creases, and still displays nicely.  I have scann
ed
the card fairly large for you to be able to judge condition for your self.   This would make a fantastic addition to any TOBACCO CARD or PLAYING CARD COLLECTION.   It would also be a welcome addition to any Antique Gambling Memorabilia  Collection.
Don
’t miss out on this 125  year old American Lithographic Antique.  Where else can you get such a beautiful Lithograph playing card of this age and quality,  this inexpensive.
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, 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 and Circus themes.  To view the other cards I have up on ebay please click  on the “View Sellers other Items” Icon located on this page. It will take you directly to them.
I am actually located in Canada just across the border.  I have a U.S.A. mailing address, and I mail my items from the USA to avoid border delays.
Due to my work schedule and distance to the post office I am only able to ship  Monday Mornings
.  If I haven’t received payment for an item the EVENING BEFORE Monday  the item will have to wait until the next Monday  to go out. Its unfortunate but unavoidable.  If this doesn’t work for you I respectfully ask that you do not bid or buy. Thanks again.
I will COMBINE SHIPPING within Canada and the USA on items of similar size that are sold on the same day.
I am sorry but ebay's global shipping program does not allow combined shipping on International shipments.
