W. Duke Sons & Co. (USA) - (A32) Sporting Girls (02)


1892
(A32) Sporting Girls
W. Duke Sons & Co.
USA
5 prints (0 football)

The previous album featured a full set of 10 prints but this version only includes 5. Apparently these include a random mix of the 10 prints, meaning there could be many different versions of this album.
The covers of this album state "This Folding Album shows one half of our collection of Ten Sporting Girls which we furnish in exchange for 75 Certificates - one of which is packed in each of our cigarette boxes".

Bullfighting (holding rapier in right hand)
Diving
Fencing (flexing foil over head)
Hunting
Jockey (blue & gray cap, vertically-striped blouse)
Jockey (red cap, diagonally-striped blouse)
Rowing
Sledding
Tennis
Winter (hands in muff at waist)
