Notes: Checklist incomplete. This set contains a mixture of movie stars and sports stars. This chocolate factory is located in the district of Yvours in the town of Irigny south of LYON (in the department of RHONE). There is no known album for this set. Numbers 1 to 8 seem reserved for movie stars, 9 to 39 for sports, 40 to 79 for movie stars and 80 to 90 again for sports.
The photos can be in black or in sepia for the same photo. For card #1, the sepia version shows Hedy Lamarr's first name as Edy, while the black version has her name correct. This may indicate that the sepia version was released first, with the black version correcting that mistake.
Date info: Card number 85 shows G. Rossi, winner of the METZ-ROUBAIX stage of the Tour de France 1951 (indicated on the back), and card 18 also shows a 1951 winner, which would date the series to the end of 1951 or in 1952. I am placing a 1952 date on this set.
