Starting in 1887, Arm & Hammer began producing one of the most beautiful and colorful non sport sets ever produced; Birds of the World. These cards were issued in various years thru 1975, with each set being more beautifully composed than the one before. Here we have every card ever produced for this issue - a master set - as follows: 1887 Beautiful Birds series of 60, 1904 Game Birds (30), 1908 New Series of Birds (30), 1915 Useful Birds, First Series (30), 1918 Useful Birds, Second Series (30), 1922 Useful Birds, Third Series (30), 1924‘Useful Birds, Fourth Series (30), 1927 Useful Birds, Fifth Series (15), 1929 Useful Birds, Sixth Series (15), 1935 ,Useful Birds, Seventh Series (15), 1936 Useful Birds, Eighth Series (15), 1938‘Useful Birds, Ninth Series (15), 1938 Useful Birds, Tenth Series (15), 1975 Birds of Prey (10). What makes this collection all the more special that many of the cards present at a stellar NM or better condition. Overall assessment is 15% NM-MT, 25% NM, 40% EX-MT, 15% EX and a scant 5% only slightly lesser. A beautiful collection for all bird lovers out there. Total of 340 cards.
