Large thin card - thin gum. Packaged together - boxed?

I'm still looking for an 1888 Green and Blackwell Co. Gum (E223) Card Package - I've added to that an HDS Gum (Scrapps) package. Doubt their existence.
HDS is definitive.

I owned several uncut pairs that had tabs on them with HDS name. Consigned to Al at LOTG and he did the legwork that solved the mystery.
