Consolidated Cigarette Co. (USA) - (N352) Fine Colored Relief Cards (09) - Fencing


1888
N352 Fine Colored Relief Cards
Consolidated Cigarette Co. / Paxi Cigarettes
USA
100 cards (4 Football)

The backs of the cards list various groups including fencing. I am not aware of any of these cards showing fencers but I have come across seven examples of Raphael Tuck die-cut scraps that do feature fencers and it's possible that these would be the ones used. Complete sheets usually display seven or eight different characters. It would be interesting to track down a complete sheet of these fencers for that reason and to get the sheet number.
