N232 Kinney Cigarettes Surf Beauties Complete Set of (50) Cards

This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/26/2022

The N232 Kinney Tobacco Surf Beauties set is an interesting, possibly even scandalous for the time, set picturing women in bathing costumes at beaches from both U.S. and foreign destinations. The cards picture women bathing, standing, sitting, frolicking and other activites--all at beaches like Fire Island, Atlantic City, Bar Harbor, Cape May and many other beaches in the U.S. Foreign destinations like Calais, Brighton, Nice and Ostend are also represented.

This complete set of (50) N232 Kinney Cigarettes Surf Beauties fall largely into the GVG to VGEX range with most cards being around VG. Corner wear and general soiling are the two most prevalent condition issues but a couple cards have back damage as well as a couple cards with staining on the back.
