Having heard that there was a so-called "Series of 50" that had only 25 cards in it, I was on the alert for it and at last found it. The design is exactly the same as in the series of 25 done by Gallaher, apparently in the same year. Had they planned to go further but never perhaps got around to it? A number of cards in this particular set are misprinted on the verso, so that they show a part of a column from a different card and miss part of this card's column. Might these be contemporary reproductions?
