Buchner Tobacco issued a number of sets in the 1880's to 1890's and seemed to have somewhat of a penchant for policemen. No less than five of the fourteen Buchner sets include pictures of policemen--N281, N283, N284, N287 and N288. The N281 American Scenes with a Policemen contain nice artistic work of an American iconic spot along with a policeman in the picture. The cards are titled on the front with the characteristic Buchner redemption advertisement on the back.
This lot of (4) cards from the N281 Buchner American Scenes with a Policeman are generally in Poor to G condition with most being around Fair to Good. The subjects included in the lot are: Niagara Falls, Old Trinity Church NY, Exposition Building St. Louis and NY Harbor Police. Great lot for the set builder.
