N39 Allen & Ginter Fish From American Waters Lot of (14) Cards

This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 10/24/2021

The N39 Allen & Ginter Fish From American Waters set is the (50) card set that is the counterpart to the smaller N8 Allen & Ginter set of the same name. Like all the large format Allen & Ginter sets, the set was issued with Richmond Straight Cut cigarettes and features the artwork from the smaller counterpart sets against a backdrop of ornate lithographed scenes. The N39 set features fish that were commonly found in American waterways during the end of the 19th century and were a popular subject as the artwork from the original N8 Fish set was used on many other sets from other tobacco companies both in the United States and abroad, even as late as the early 20th century.

This lot of (14) N39 Allen & Ginter cards from the Fish From American Waters set are in a very clean, narrow VG to EX range, averaging mostly around VGEX. There is one card with a red marker notation on the back (Yellow Perch), but, other than that, all have clean fronts and backs. The group would make a good lot for the set builder.
