I was just perusing REA's newly-opened auction, and noticed that they are attributing the 1888 Scrapps Tobacco set, to "H.D. Smith and Company", a candy and gum manufacturer in Cincinnati, Ohio.
According to REA, this was recently discovered by Al C. of LOTG, who did some extensive newspaper archive research to find it. It also states that the "cards" were evidently issued as "premiums". Have any articles been published or announcements made, that include any further information about this? The above information is buried in a lot description in REA's auction. In any case, thank you to Al for his work in discovering this! Steve
