These cards were issued by Phillips in 1938 and feature famous children from history. Or at least famous historical people when they were children.
The set shows famous minors over a time period from Alexander the Great in 323BC to Joseph Pilsudski in 1935. They include Isaac Newton, George Washington, Michelangelo, Mozart and W G Grace.
Each card has a picture of the person on the front and on the back a brief history of their life.
This is a very interesting set of cards which cover a wide range of historic figures.
The size of the cards is approximately 6.8 x 3.6cm. They are a full set of 50 original cards and they have an adhesive backing.
There is some wear commensurate with the age of these cards but overall the set is in good condition.
Please note. I do my best to accurately photograph and describe the condition of the items for sale, including any minor defects but all pieces are vintage and have had previous lives and so may have minor flaws.
