Red Turkey cigarettes: Butterfly cards
Posted By: Michael Poland
I am fairly new to the tobacco card scene and have only been collecting them since the beginning of the year. My wife supports my hobby, yet she considers me just hoarding old pieces of paper....lol. Anyway, I wanted to get her into it so she could apprecaite what I am doing so I decided to see if I could find any old tobacco cards that would fit her taste. She really is into butterflies so interestingly enough I found some Red Turkey cards on ebay with butterflies on them! The thing is I can't find ANY information about them other than they were supposedly issued in the 1920s. I know this board is geared more toward sports cards but I was hoping someone could lead me in the right direction. |

some 19th Century Kinney Butterflies cards that are very nice. Not sure what the N-classification is on them but search for 'Kinney Butterfly' or 'Kinney Butterflies'. I may still have a couple at home. Will check for you. Generally $8-$10 each depending on condition. Don't know about the other issue. |

I collect the animal-skin rugs series of tobacco felts (B12 Type 3) and when searching eBay find tons of similar butterfly felts (B14, B15); very attractive and colorful and not at all expensive. |

Thanks for all the replies. She'll be glad to know there is so many butterfly cards! Now she can hoard old pieces of paper with me! I'll pick up that card guide and if you want to send some front and back scans that would be great! |
