Chocolate Orthi (Spain) - Mundial Sport


1918
Mundial Sport
Chocolate Orthi
Spain
30 cards (1 football)

The cards are 10cm x 7cm but the title of World Sport can be a little misleading as some, like hot air ballooning (Globo) are more like recreational pursuits. The cards in this collection, like many from this period, include adverts on the back for a wide range of retailers, usually selling confectionary. I have dated this collection to 1918 (usually seen listed as being issued in the 1920's) as one version of the cards relates to a raffle in Madrid, with the draw taking place on 21 December, 1918.
