OT...Need help identifying Churchmans cigarette Pack?

Posted By: CLAUDE

Just wondering if anyone knows the age of the pack I am posting here?? I know nothing about Churchmans Cigarettes but bought a 1939 Kings of Speed set (W/Jesse Owens) and they arrived inside this pack. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks-
Claude

Claude --

Churchman's put out a bunch of cigarette sets throughout the years, including your Speed cards. It is an set from England, where cig card collecting is very popular. Instead of binders, many times you will see people carry their sets in old packs like this one. My local shop in Salisbury, England sells the packs for about $1 each - many with the name of a cig card set pencilled in on it. Hope that helps...

Take Care, Geno

You may want to look at ebay catagory "Tobacco Cards". In it you will find a wealth of tobacco cards, both sports and non-sports that will give you a pretty good idea what this stuff goes for and what is available.
