The E40 Philadelphia Caramel Airships set is a (15) card set picturing early airships likely from the period of 1908-1910. The cards picture subjects bound to have excited small children who pulled them from caramel packs of the day. Six of the 15 cards picture dirigibles with the other nine picturing early airplanes by the likes of the Wright Brothers, Curtiss, Farman, Bleriot and others. Many of the airplane subjects can be found on other card sets of the day from candy, tobacco and other manufacturers.
This lot of (4) E40 Philadelphia Caramel Airships are in GVG to VG condition with just surface soiling on the front and back as the main condition issue. Great little group for the set builder.
