Produced in 1888 by Duke Cigarettes, these cards depict people from all walks of life with caricatures reflected in their shadows. Rare enough individually, here we have a complete set of these ‘Shadows’, with three-quarters of the cards being in amazing EX-MT or better condition and the rest a strong VG-EX. The backs of seven cards have slight paper loss where the cards might have been removed from an album. Beautiful, strong colors and soft cream colored backgrounds on each card make this a very desirable and collectible set. And it’s only 130-years young.
