About these Cards
25 cards. From Great Britain, 1916.
Each card measures 1-7/16" X 2-1/2 inches.
25 card set of British and American Silent Film Stars. Not to be confused with the 30-card set of theatrical stars released that same year by Wills with the same brand product (Scissors). That set has a similar ornate design, but this one also includes a neat graphic of a film camera in the bottom portion of the border design.
The most popular cards in this set include Ethel Barrymore, Mary Miles Minter, Florence La Badie and the card of the Fairbanks Twins.
