Notes: This appears to share some features with the Godfrey Phillips Cinema Stars (52) set, though not exactly the same. The #28 Gary Cooper card shares the same back text as the two Gary Cooper cards in the Phillips set, but the front image is different and the number is also different. Other subjects seen have the same or similar back text as the Phillips set, but with slight amendments.

Thanks to Richard Minns and Bernie Feldman for helping with this set.
