The T108 Between the Acts Little Cigars Theatres set is a 50 card set of theatres--both old and new--that were popular in the US and other locales. As this set was issued sometime after the turn of the 20th century, these theatres were primarily for stage performances as movies had not yet been invented. The majority of theatres, as you can imagine, were located in New York City with some having already been demolished when this set was printed.
This lot is for a single copy of the T108 card for Keith's Theater in Philadelphia in G condition. The card has some light paper flaking on the back lower center. The back advertises the extremely difficult Lyceum Little Cigars brand. These backs are prohibitively more difficult to find than are the common Between the Acts back. Great addition to a complete set for variety or a great hole-filler for a 20th century tobacco card type collection.
