Notes: Checklist incomplete. The series numbering is a bit strange on this set as follows:
So there are two different Serie VII through Serie XII for this set. In the album, there are spaces for all 320 cards, arranged by the larger cards Serie VII-XXI first, followed by the smaller cards (Serie I-XII).
Many images from the smaller cards can be seen in the Aurelia "Bilder Album I" issue.
German collector Nick Bolton provided most of the checklist information for this set and has the following comments about this set:
Now we have another big one, and a really rare company: Montana cigarettes. Very few albums are known - in fact I am the only person I know who has the album, and mine is unfortunately empty. But it at least proves it exists. If you read the details below, you'll see what a strange series this is - it's almost as if two completely separate series were forcibly merged together! It does contain a few of my favourite and rare motifs of Keaton, Valentino and Chaplin though, and I'm happy to at least have the majority of the cards from this series in my collection. In particular the hand-coloured cards are hard to find, and the vibrancy of the colours really fades over time, so that many images appear to be black and white.
