The N569 E.T. Pilkington Company Fruits and Flowers set is a beautifully lithographed set of (48) cards picturing flowers and fruits on the front of the card with advertising on the back of the card along with a checklist of subjects. The cards measure 2-1/4" wide by 3-1/2" high and are slightly oversized to the average 19th century tobacco card. There is a companion album that could be had for coupon redemptions that pictures the cards in the set. The album is one of the scarcer to find from the run of 19th century albums.
This single N569 E.T. Pilkington Tobacco Fruits & Flowers card of the subject "Grapes" would be in about VG to VGEX condition. The card exhibits some surface dirt but overall is clean with intact print on the back.
