Sociedade Industrial dos Tabacos de Angola - Sports (1st Series)


1928
Sports (1st series)
Sociedade Industrial dos Tabacos de Angola
Angola
200 cards

These cards were issued between the end of 1928 and 1929, though some baseball card sites date them to 1927. Some cards show scene from the 1928 Olympic Games in Amsterdam, so 1927 is too early. They cover a variety of sports and it's possible that they were issued by a wide variety of firms in many countries. There are plenty of gaps so if you have any information please get in touch. I've labelled these cards as '1st Series' as there is a second series that contains 100 cards. I haven't yet found any football cards in the second series. If I do, I'll include details here at a later date.
UPDATE (04-06-2016 17:26): Only two football cards missing from this list - numbers 73 and 84.
UPDATE (16-07-2020 10:18):  The country of issue has been amended from Angola to Brazil, following an interesting thread on the Net54baseball.com forum.
UPDATE (18-11-2021 21:28):  Following further research into a set of 105 football cards, I am now convinced that these cards were available in Angola, not Brazil.
