The N33 Allen & Ginter World's Smokers picture smokers from around the world. Some of the popular subjects include the Planter--the Allen & Ginter logo namesake and the American Indian, among others. The cards have colorful, plain backgrounds and picture the smokers in their native garb. The images were used for other cigarette sets during later periods.
This near set (43/50) cards is missing only the subjects Circassian and African to be complete. The condition on the majority of cards in this near set is between VG and EX with most showing a uniform VGEX appearance. Two of the cards have some writing on the back and there is the usual discoloration of the backs to a certain extent due to the card stock the lithographer used for this set.
