? cards

Andrius Dallé has provided some information about this collection, featuring the legendary Arthur Friedereich. I'll let him explain:

This is one of Friedereich's rarest sets or maybe "the rarest", and I have the following information:

•  Pack where the cards came from with name of the set. The Set gained the name "Severa 500" due to a homage to the film "A Severa", starring the actress Dina Tereza. The film is the first Portuguese language all-talking film released in 1931.

•  Newspaper clipping talking about the launch of the collection, dated 1933.

•  Some different cards from the set, with some teams, including São Paulo F.C. with Friedereich included and other teammates. 

•  Two cards from the same collection, with pictures of Dina Tereza from the film "A Severa". The same actress as shown on the packet where the cards came from. These cards confirm all the other information about the name, year and package.

•  The rubber stamps on the cards is the name of the founder of the Sudan Company (Sabbado Dangelo).
