Notes: Checklist incomplete. The backs mention that two different mail-in offers were available. If you sent in 5 cards and 50 cents, you would receive a 20-page album with space for 200 cards. If you sent in 10 cards and 50 cents, you would receive your choice of a large 8 x 10 hand-painted, mounted photograph of one of the cards in this set. There were two code letters on the back of each card that you were supposed to use when selecting the large card you wanted. It seems kind of odd that you had to send in your cards to get an album to hold the cards - who knows, maybe they returned the cards to you.
The checklist below includes the code letters on the backs, where they are known.
