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 pair of N569 E.T. Pilkington Tobacco Fruits & Flowers cards are of the subjects Orange and Pear. The cards are mostly in VG to VGEX condition but the Orange card has a dot or two of paper loss on the back.
