new information added. In the American Assorted section,
new checklists added for Felt Pennant Film Stars (BF2) and
Silk Film Stars (S72-1). Those checklists are mainly the
result of work by Dan Calandriello and Bob Forbes as well
as many contributions by other collectors. Some additions
to the Ghirardelli checklist also, thanks to Tom Boblitt.

browsed the Chile listings, there are now 79 sets listed
in this section, mostly from the 1930s, with a few from the
1920s. All of these sets feature Hollywood stars. There are
a lot of interesting poses and film scenes in the cards from
Chile. These are unique and seldom seen cards.
Jun 24, 2009: Lots of collectors have helped with this latest update, it's
great to get help from so many people to get the checklists
as complete as possible. Amit Benyovits has sent all the missing
names for the Ardath Photocards Series 12 checklist, so that one
is now complete. Tracey Kersher has identified the actor on the
example picture for the Anonymous Film Stars (No Name, Small
Yellow Box) as Fredric March. Pascal Matthys has provided over

the German section called Kosmos Frauen-Schönheit und Anmut,
which translates to Women of Beauty and Grace. Tony Sorsby has
also contributed additional checklist information.
Jun 15, 2009: In the Misc C-K section, I added many new scans of the cards from
the Clinton Williams Scenes From Paramount Pictures set. These
scans were provided by collector David Elliott. Cards from this
set contain scenes of unidentified actors and actresses from
unidentified movies. If the actors and movies are known, these
have been filled in for the checklist. If you know any of the
unknown information, please send it along. In the Misc N-S section,
more information has been provided for the Sandorides Cinema
Celebrities set. Collector Keith Pennington provided scans of
a large version of these cards with a title of Cinema Stars and a
back advertising Big Gun cigarettes. This set was issued in seven
different ways, and all seven types are now identified in the
checklist and two different types are pictured.
Dec 10, 2008: Thanks to Dixie Lid collector extraordinaire Steve Leone, the
American Dixie Lids checklists are now all complete. This is
an area of the Moviecard Website that I've long wanted to
improve, so I am very grateful to Steve for supplying the
information needed for these checklists. Thanks to Dan
Calandriello for giving me a push to get these done and for
supplying lots of Dixie Lid scans. Amit Benyovits sent in
scans of the Bridgewater 2nd Series album, so that is now
available for all to see.

Stars of the Movies, and Kromo Gravure Leading Moving Picture
Stars. In the American Weight Machine Cards section, I've added
new scans, new cards to the checklists, and added new backs to
most of the sets listed. Added two new cards to the Laurel and
Hardy trading card tour - Vlinder and Historia Del Cine Oliver
Hardy.
Nov 15, 2008: Thanks to Skip Rutherford for supplying all of the missing
numbers to complete the Chile Okey Serie G checklist.
Nov 15, 2008: Bob Richardson has contributed a ton of new information, mostly
about scarce American sets. From Bob's contributions, there are
new American Assorted section checklists for Hershey Our Gang,
I-Car-De Mayonnaise Film Stars, Leather Film Stars, Mothers
Bread Movie Star Postcards, Moviebook Corp. Film Stars, Pakas
Stamps Film Stars, Weber Movie Stars, Wentz Stamps Film Stars,

existing checklists and those are now sprinkled throughout the
checklists.
Oct 20, 2008: Lots of new checklists courtesy of Mikael Hoffsten. In the Dutch
Gum Cards section, new sets include Serie MLH (which has back text
for Cowboy Chewing Gum) and Desco Holland. For Serie H, a new
back is shown for REA Sweets. For Starbilder C, a variation card
for card #105 is shown. In the Anonymous section, 4 new checklists
have been added, including Anonymous Film Stars (Sterling Hayden in
"Johnny Guitar"), Anonymous Film Stars (Allan Ladd #14), Anonymous
Film Stars (Kenny Duncan #16), and Anonymous Film Stars (John Wayne
#84). In the Miscellaneous (A-B) section, the Ami-Rose checklist was
added. In the Miscellaneous (C-K) section, the Imperial Krsko Film
Stars checklist was added. I believe this is the first checklist on
the Moviecard Website for a card set issued in Croatia. In the
Miscellaneous (L-M) section, the Milou Film Stars checklist was
added. In the Miscellaneous (T-Z) section, the Terrabusi Cine
checklist was added. In the German section, the Karmitri Filmsterne
checklist was added, and the Anonymous Film Stars (Das War Buffalo
Bill) checklist was added.
July 31, 2008: No new checklists added this time, but updates to lots of sets
thanks to some generous contributors. Tom Patrie continues to send
new pictures for the R96 set in the American Assorted section. Tom
has the majority of the cards from this elusive set and has been
very generous in scanning these and sharing the images. Collector
Bob Richardson has added a lot of great checklist information for
some difficult sets, including the following sets from the American
Assorted section - American Caramel Movie Actors and Actresses (E123),
Banquet Movie Picture Stars, Drake's Cake Film Stars, Fatima
Photoplay Stars (T222), Hoffman Paramount Series, Simmen's Model
Bakery Film Stars. Bob has also added checklist information for the
Fancy Frame Strip Cards and Film Frame Strip Cards sets, both listed
in the American Strip Cards section. Hall of Fame contributor
Dan Calandriello has added more stamps to the Seein' Stars Movie
Star Stamps checklist. The Seein' Stars checklist was already
completely the work of Dan, and now it is even closer to completion.
July 17, 2008: In the American Assorted section, I added a lot of new information
for the R96 set, courtesy of collector Tom Patrie. Tom sent
a detailed list of most of the films listed on the cards. This is
important information, since there are variations of some of the
cards and the films help tell the difference between them in
some cases. It is also important information because there is a
Canadian version of these cards (O-Pee-Chee Film Stars) with
different films listed in some of the captions.
July 3, 2008: In the American Assorted section, I added pictures for a lot
more of the Kromo Gravure white bordered cards.
May 14, 2008: In the American Assorted section, I added a new checklist for
Fatima Photoplay Stars (T222), thanks to Keith O'Leary's
assistance. I also added some more cards to the Kromo Gravure
checklist and added a picture of a Bowman 1948 uncut sheet.
In the Misc A-B section, there is a new checklist for Alfa
Filmkolaskylt 26, a 1941 set from Sweden - thanks to Mikael
Hoffsten for this. There is also a new checklist for Barratt
Film Stars 1930s. In the Misc C-K section, there is a new
checklist for Caley Film Stars. Some new cards were also added
to the checklist for Falcon Calvo Estrellas De Cine. In the
Misc N-S section, Mikael Hoffsten provided information for a
new checklist for the OK's Big Bub Bubble Gum Film Stars set.
There is also a new checklist for R-A Cigarillos Film Stars
and a new checklist for Riquisimo Film Stars. In the Dutch
Gum Cards section, Mikael Hoffsten provided information for
a new checklist for the Hellas High Chaparral set.
May 9, 2008: Collector Bo Hafström from Sweden provided cards to start
checklists for several new Swedish sets. On the Anonymous
list, there is a new checklist for Anonymous Film Stars (Bessie
Love - Sweden), with the card provided by Bo. On the Misc C-K
list, there are new sets for Ebe Goldfilm Film Stars and
Einar Ahlström Goldfilm Film Stars, with cards provided by Bo.
The Misc C-K list also contains a new checklist for Clinton
Williams Scenes From Paramount Pictures, a set issued in
Australia. The Clinton Williams set shows film scenes with no
identification of the film or stars. I have seven cards
pictured in that checklist, with only 2 films identified. If
there are any film detectives out there, I would welcome any
help with the rest of the identifications for that set. Bo
also provided a new Farris large card for inclusion in the
checklists. On the Misc N-S list, Bo provided a card to start
a new checklist for Pix Film Stars. Swedish collector Mikael
Hoffsten provided a sample album page from the Stjarnparaden
Film Stars set and additional checklist information for that
set. The Dutch Gum card checklists continue to progress with
the help of Bo and Mikael and other collectors as well. I added
a picture of a card sheet that shows cards from the
Dutch Ab Set, B Set, C Set, D Set, E Set, and F Set all on the
same sheet. The picture can be seen from a link from any of those
checklists. I added a new checklist to the Dutch Gum cards section,
which I named Unnumbered Set 5. Mikael also provided an unopened
package of cards which I think is from the Dutch High Numbers
set, and I have pictured the package with that checklist. I also
added a new checklist to the American Strip Cards section - Wild
Colors Playing Cards Strip Cards and added some new information
for the Caption in Box Strip Cards set. Three new cards were
also added to the Laurel and Hardy Card Tour (found under links).
May 2, 2008: Bruce Parker has been very generous in sending lots of new scans
of German sets. As a result, new checklists are now shown for
Austria Bunte Filmbilder 1st Series, Constantin Bunten
Filmbilder, Garbaty Film-Lieblinge, Jasmatzi Ramses Filmbilder
545-816, Kosmos Film-Photos Serie 2, Orienta Bunte Filmbilder
Second Series, and Zuban Bunte Filmbilder Second Series. In
addition, Bruce has also supplied some new scans that have
been sprinkled into the checklists of some other sets that are
already there, including an interesting variation for card
number 50 Douglas Fairbanks of the Josetti Filmbilder 1-272 set.
May 1, 2008: I updated the majority of the checklists in the Dutch Gum Cards
section. Hundreds of new cards were added to the checklists, and
most of the checklists in this section are now complete or close
to being complete. This huge amount of new information was
provided by Swedish collector Mikael Hoffsten, a great friend to
the Moviecard Website and a tireless contributor of new information.
Apr 12, 2008: Collector Ulf Östlund from Sweden provided all the numbers needed to
complete the checklists in the Dutch Gum Cards section for Serie H,
Serie S, and Serie T.
Apr 11, 2008: I updated a bunch of checklists in the German and Dutch Gum sections.
These updates came from Kees Kleihues. Kees has an outstanding
website which shows pictures in high resolution of tons of movie
cards, mostly from Germany. I have added a link to his website
in my Links section.
Apr 4, 2008: A new high number card was added to the American E123 checklist
(#137 Constance Binney), courtesy of Marci Kennedy. Lots of
new Exhibit information was added, mostly courtesy of Exhibit
collector Otis Johnson. Otis provided information for the Exhibit
Gene Autry set, including pictures of all the cards in the set.
Otis added information to complete the checklist for Exhibit Blue
(Made in U.S.A.) 13 mm Set, which Exhibit called Popular Cowgirls.
Otis also provided information to complete the Exhibit Brown 4-in-1
(MADE IN U.S.A) 11 mm Set and provided info on the last card to
complete the checklist for the Exhibit BW (Printed in U.S.A.) set.
Otis also provided additional information about the Mutoscope Brown
Postcards set, as well as providing scans of the front and back
of a very interesting Exhibit advertising flyer from 1956. Scott
Mt. Joy also helped with Exhibit information, completing the
checklist for the Exhibit BW (Printed in U.S.A) 17 mm Set (1950s).
Adam Warshaw provided a scan of the Bob Steele portrait card from
the Cutout Head Strip cards, the only card that wasn't previously
pictured for that set. Frequent contributor Mikael Hoffsten from
Sweden provided new information about the Dutch Gum Cards Serie
FA, including a picture of an original packet used for these
cards. Roger Mitchell provided information to start two new
German checklists, Gebrüder Haas 96 Filmbilder and Trumpf Durch
Alle Welt. Linda Fitak provided information for a new checklist
for the German Lande Abbildungen Der Prominentesten u. Aktuellsten
Filmkünstler set. Linda also provided various additions to many
other checklists. Bo Hafstrom from Sweden provided new information
about the ROSS Film Stars set, including a picture of an original
packet that these cards were sold in. Bo also provided some cards
for some new checklists that I'll get to in the next update.
Mar 5, 2008: New checklists started for Peter Jackson Stars in Famous Films
and Shirley's Gum Film Stars. Both of these checklists along
with other assorted checklist updates were provided by collector
Bruce Parker. Dan Calandriello provided new scans and information
for the Cutout Head Strip Cards from the American Strip Cards
section. A picture of a Cuban back for the American Caramel E124
set has been put up. Quite a few checklist additions for the
Dutch Gum Cards have been added, including a complete list for
the last series in the Val Gum Film Stars set, provided by
Charles Tedesco. New links have been added to a Truus Van Aalten
website and a Fred MacMurray website.
Nov 10, 2007: New checklists provided for Allen's QT Fruit Drops Film Stars
and La Abrosia Film Stars in the Misc A-B section. New checklist
provided for Gener A Que Cambiar de Esposa, which is a Cuban
set showing scenes from the 1922 Gloria Swanson film "Why Change
Your Wife?" Also a new checklist for Independencia Film Stars.
Both the Gener and Independencia sets are in the Misc C-K section.
There is a new checklist for the Movie-Land Keeno set in the
American Assorted section. Movie-Land Keeno is a game that has
a group of movie star cards included. All the Movie-Land Keeno
information was provided by Dan Calandriello. A few other
checklist additions have been sprinkled in.
Oct 17, 2007: Mikael Hoffsten from Sweden provided information for five new
checklists, as follows. A new checklist was added to the Misc A-B
section for Belgian Gum Film Stars Magic Photos. A new checklist
was added to the Misc N-S section for Stjarnparaden Film Stars -
3 Card Strips. Three new checklists were added to the Anonymous
Movie Star Card Sets section, including Anonymous Film Stars
(Dutch Big B&W), Anonymous Film Stars (Dutch Medium B&W),
and Anonymous Film Stars (German Big B&W).
Oct 16, 2007: I added some interesting information to the Topps Hocus Focus set
in the American Assorted section, including pictures of an original
display box with these cards and an article that came out about them
when they were released. Also pictures of all the movie stars in the
set. Thanks to Dan Calandriello for providing this information. I
also updated the Wild Colors Strip Cards set in the American Strip
Cards section to include pictures of a lot of the cards in that set.
I also added pictures of two more Laurel and Hardy cards to the
Laurel and Hardy card tour (check the links to take this tour).
Oct 11, 2007: I added a new checklist to the Anonymous Movie Star section -
Anonymous Film Stars (Borders Like E123). I added a new checklist
to the American Assorted section - Anon-Save This Photo and Letter
Film Stars. I added a new checklist to the American Strip Cards
section - Film Frame Strip Cards. I added a lot of information to the
Cutout Head Strip Cards checklist in the American Strip Cards section,
including new scans and information provided by Dan Calandriello and
scans of all the known cards in the set including many variations. The
Abdulla Cinema Stars (Hand Coloured-32) checklist in the Misc A-B
section is now complete, thanks to Lee Towersey. The Aurelia Sultan
Filmsterne checklist in the German section is now almost complete,
thanks to Keith Pennington. There are still 16 missing cards in the
checklist for this set, so if you have these, please email me the
information so this set can be completed.
July 6, 2007: I added two new checklists to the Anonymous checklist section. These
include Anonymous Film Stars (Australian Hand Numbered) and
Anonymous Film Stars (Sweden Small B&W). Mikael Hoffsten from Sweden
graciously supplied me with sample cards and information for the
Sweden set.
June 13, 2007: Dan Calandriello provided many checklist additions to the Seein' Stars
checklist in the American Assorted section. I moved the Hollywood
Star Stamps checklist from the Misc C-K section to the American
Assorted section, since this was a USA issue. I added some interesting
information to the Crawford Theatre set in the American Movie Theatre
section, provided by Sylvia Beadnell.
June 7, 2007: I added 4 new checklists to the Anonymous section. These are Anonymous
Film Stars (Buddy Ebsen), Anon - TV & Film Stars (Spanish 1970),
Anonymous Film Stars (Connie Stevens), and Anonymous Film Stars (2
Stars on Front - Name and Studio Logo on Back). I added the Bruguera
Todo checklist to the Misc A-B section. I made 4 updates to the Misc
C-K section, including new checklists for Figuras De La TV and
Kiskimaarin 50 Tulitikkua Movie Posters, and updated the checklists for
Gallina Blanca Estrellas de la Pantalla and Hollywood Starstamps. In
the Misc T-Z section, I added checklists for Les Vedettes Mondiales Du
Cinema and TV Stars (a Spanish set), and added a few cards to the
checklist for Victoria Vedetten Parade. In the Modern section, I added
a checklist for Calendar 2000 Spain Movie Stars.
I also recently did some updates to the American Assorted section, where
I added a checklist for R63 Guess Who and updated the checklists or
pictures for General Gum Movie Stars, T86 Movie Stars, R133 and R134.
Dan Calandriello provided most of the information for these updates. In
the Misc N-S section, I added pictures for about a dozen more cards in
the O-Pee-Chee Film Stars set. That is an interesting set because it
mirrors the American R96 set, but usually with different captions that
mention later movies. For example the Judy Garland card shows the same
picture for both sets, but has a caption for "Love Finds Andy Hardy"
in R96 and a caption for "The Wizard of Oz" in the O-Pee-Chee set.
May 4, 2007: I added a new checklist to the American Assorted section for American
Caramel Movie Actors and Actresses (Late 1920s). This set is very
similar in appearance to the E124 American Caramel set, but was
issued several years later. I moved two cards that I previously had
listed under E124 over to this new checklist, as that is where they
belong. I added a new back to the Peerless Cloudy (Studio in Script)
set found under the American Weight Machine Cards section. The new
back shows poker hands. I changed the date for BAT Cinema Artistes
or Stars (B&W) Set 1 (found under the Anonymous section) to 1932. It
was previously listed as 1928, but that was corrected by Laura
McCullough who noticed that Greta Garbo's photo from the set showed
her in the film Mata Hari, a late 1931 release. Further confirmation
for the date change comes from the fact that Spanky is in this set,
and he wasn't even born until 1928, making a 1928 date for this set
impossible, but further confirming a date of 1932 or later. A new
checklist was added in the Misc C-K section for De Film Film Stars.
Apr 5, 2007: Several new checklists have been added to the American Exhibit Cards
section recently. Thanks to Dan Calandriello for helping with these
checklists. Two new sets have been added to the Misc N-s section, Stens
Film Stars and Stjarnparaden Film Stars. Information for both of those
sets was provided by Mikael Hoffsten. Mikael also provided some
additional information for the Anonymous P Set (located in the Anonymous
section). Some new information was added to the Hollywood Star Stamps
section, courtesy of Ken Rozek. I also added scans for most of the
cards in the Favorite Theater set (located in the American Theater
cards section). I'm also planning to add more scans for the Kromo
Gravure cards soon. For the School of Dancing Joy Amsterdam set (located
in the Misc N-S section), I discovered that those cards were issued
with two different back types, one with blue ink and English and German text,
the other with black ink and Dutch and French text. I added scans of
sample backs for both types. New information was added for the ABC Film
Stars (1948) set, including scans of all of the cards in the set. That's a
very interesting set, with the earliest Three Stooges card that I know of
included in the set, among other interesting cards. New information was
recently added for the Bowman 1948 Movie Stars set (American section),
provided by Mark Hellman. Mark has also recently provided me with some
very interesting Kromo Gravure information, and I hope to add that soon.
Thanks to all who have contributed information recently, the checklists
and other information on this website continue to become more complete
thanks to your contributions.
Dec 1, 2006: Three new checklists have been added for the following sets - Cigarros
Gener Film Stars in the Misc C-K section, Anonymous Film Stars (Dutch
Gum Style-NZ) in the Anonymous section, and Greetings Green Tint Film
Stars in the Biscuit section. These are all partial checklists, just
to get these sets started. If anyone else has additions to these lists,
email them over to me so I can get these checklists more complete. I
have been adding a lot of pictures to create picture checklists for
some sets, particularly those sets that are hard to list just with
text alone. For example, unnumbered sets with multiple pictures of the
same stars are very difficult to checklist with text alone. Also, sets
that contain multiple cards for the same numbers are difficult to
checklist. I am now creating picture checklists for many of the Biscuit
card sets, some of the American Strip Card sets, and some of the
American Weight Machine sets. I often add pictures without mentioning
this in the What's New section. Here are some sets that I've added
pictures for recently - American Kromo Gravure, American Strip Card set
W511, American Weight Machine sets, and some Biscuit card sets.
Dec 7, 2005: Mikael Hoffsten from Sweden has supplied me with a ton of great new
information about the Dutch Gum cards. These movie cards were huge in
Sweden and The Netherlands in the 1950s and 1960s and there are a lot of
avid collectors in those countries. New Dutch Gum sets added include
the Number in Black Square set and the Dutch Serie (1/72) set. Also,
some very interesting information added to the Unnumbered Studio Set 2
(Autografbilder) set, including a Kellogg's back for those cards and
information about a Swedish movie that was made with those cards as a
central theme. Some other miscellaneous checklist additions have also
been added throughout the site.
Nov 11, 2005: Lots of checklist additions and some new checklists in the Dutch
Gum Cards section. Special thanks for Mikael Hoffsten from Sweden
for most of this new information. In the American Weight Machine
cards section, the checklist for the Peerless B Set is now complete.
Thanks to Robert Shaw for providing all the missing names. I added
pictures of lots of variations in the German Josetti Filmbilder
1-272 set - take a look at those, they are very interesting. In
the Tobacco Products Corp. Strollers cigarette movie card checklist
I added a picture of a newspaper ad for that set. Now there are
2 different ads there, take a look at them, they are very fun to
see. Thanks to frequent contributor Bobby Robinson for those ads.
Thanks also to everyone else who has been sending me new
information, including Dan Calandriello and Lee Barrie. I still
have some great new information from those two gentlemen to post,
so hopefully I'll get those up in the next few days.
Oct 13, 2005: I continue to add new checklists, new pictures, and additions to
existing checklists on a regular basis. I don't always get around
to updating this section when I add something new, so keep
looking around at checklists of interest and you might see
something new pop up from time to time. This time I have added a
new checklist in the Anonymous section for Anonymous Film Stars
(Italy-Red Border Number in Circle). Also a new checklist in the
Misc A-B section for Artisti Del Cinema, an Italian set. Also
a new checklist in the American Exhibit section for Exhibit
Movie Stamp Pictures, with most of the information and pictures
provided by Dan Calandriello for that set. I also added some
pictures to the German Josetti Filmbilder 1-272 set to show
cropping variations for some of the cards. I think all of the
cards in that set can probably be found with minor cropping
changes and other minor differences. I also added cards to some
existing checklists including Dutch Serie S, Dutch H Set, Dutch
Starbilder C, American Helmar Stamp Actresses, and American Weight
Machine Cards Peerless B Set.
Aug 2, 2005: I added a picture of a Strollers Album to the American Strollers
checklist. I added a picture of a Telfer Biscuit Suzanna Album. I
added pictures of a Bunte Filmbilder Album for both Series 1 and
Series 2 in the German section. The checklist for the German
Reemtsma Vom Werden Deutscher Filmkunst, Der Tonfilm set is now
complete, along with a picture of that Album cover. I added a
new checklist for Godfrey Phillips British Beauties (54) to the
Godfrey Phillips section. I added a new checklist for Imperial
Famous English Actresses to the Misc C-K section. I added a new
checklist for Sinclair Radio Favourites to the Misc N-S section.
Jul 6, 2005: I added two new checklists to the American Theater section, for the
Crawford Theater and the Kinema Theatre. In the Anonymous section,
I added a checklist for the Anonymous Film Stars (Victorian Premium
Suburban) set. I moved the ARS Gratia Artis set from the Misc A-B
section to the Misc C-K section and renamed it Film Fantasy Card
Game. That checklist is now complete with a picture of the box and
the rules of the game. In the Misc C-K section, I also added
checklists for Fantales Movie Stars and Home Mirror Cinema Stars.
In the Misc L-M section, I added a checklist for Murillo Cigar Bands
Film Stars. In the Wills section, I added a checklist for Wills
Actresses (Red Background), a set from the first decade of the
20th Century. In the Modern section, I added a checklist for
Smash Hits Swap Cards.
Jun 28, 2005: I added more content to the Vlinder checklist, adding a checklist and
some pictures of the large Vlinder labels that were used on packages
of the Vlinder match boxes. I moved two anonymous checklists from the
German section to the Anonymous section and added a new checklist to
the Anonymous section called Anonymous Film Stars (English-Dutch
Song Lyrics). That's kind of an odd set, showing a film star on the
front and song lyrics on the back in two languages. Most of the
missing numbers for the German Josetti Filmbilder 545-816 set have
been filled in, courtesy of Chris Ring. For the American set Mickey
Mouse and the Movie Stars, Dan Calandriello provided identifications
for all of the missing actors in this set. Some are difficult to
identify because the cards don't say who they are, they just give
clues to their identities. The pictures are caricatures of the stars,
so that also makes identification a bit more difficult. Dan has also
just created his own web page for this set with pictures of all the
cards and a picture of the wrapper for this rare set. I also added
new checklists for Clevedon Film Stars and Dos Amigos Artistas De
Cine in the Misc C-K section. The Clevedon set contains a Lucille
Ball card. Lucy is not in too many sets and is always in high demand.
It also contains an early Leslie Nielson card, a star who is not on
very many cards at all. The Dos Amigos set is a 1930s cigarette
card set from Argentina. I think that is the first set from
Argentina on the Movie Card Website, though there was at least one
other movie card set from that country. I also added some more
names and pictures of weight machine cards to the Weight Machine
Card checklists in the American section. I also recently revamped
the Biscuit card section, with more checklists and pictures. I still

weight machine card checklist additions and pictures, including a
picture of a weight machine. I also added pictures of a bunch of
