I love the internet. The New York Public Library has just put thousands of images online, high quality...Turn of the century cigarette cards with pictures of long-forgotten actresses? check. Book covers from the 1920s? Of course. Posters for Yiddish plays in Argentina? Fuggedaboutit!! Above: 2 cards that were included in cigarette packs: the first from a series of Chinese opera masks, the second from another card series of ancient starlets. Enjoy!
