Auction #2 - June 2019
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/23/2019
The N566 Newsboy series pictures Actresses and numbers into the hundreds of cards. The Newsboy cabinets were likely point-of-sale giveaways for buying the Newsboy brand of tobacco. The cabinets are standard 4-1/4" x 6-1/2" cabinets and have an albumen photo adhered to a red-inked mount advertising Newsboy of New York at the bottom front of the cabinet. Cabinets are blank-backed and often numbered on either the cabinet front or within the photo field itself and, occasionally both places. Many actresses have multiple poses or can be found with different mounts and the set offers the variation collector some real opportunities.
This lot includes a single N566 Newsboy of #167 Mary Hampton which has been graded by SGC as SGC50 or VGEX4. Great, clean Newsboy cabinet card.
