Notes: Checklist incomplete. Unnumbered. The women on these cards are unidentified. Collector Dennis Owyang reports that "The middle subject with hat looking foreward is definitely Juanita Hansen, a former Max Sennett Bathing Beauty and later movie star. The prototype image used is from a photograph that was widely used and in this case was autographed by her."
Collector Tim Thornham believes that Universal Cigarette Company is the same firm as Univeral Cigarette Works.
Date info: Juanita Hansen made films from 1914 through 1923, putting the date for these cards likely within that date range.
Thanks to Tim Thornham and Dennis Owyang for helping with this checklist.
