Had these in my collection a long time and I thought I'd give someone else a chance to enjoy them. As plentiful as m116s are - oddities from this set are not easy to come by.
These 6 cards were originally from a larger panel that was unfortunately torn apart very crudely. However, as a result from them being torn apart in this way, we can see that the individual cards were actually part of a much larger display piece since they all fit together perfectly. The significance of this is that we now know that advertising panels/posters for m116s existed at one point and that there were multiple ways in which these cards were printed/distributed.
The cards themselves are from a much thicker, heavier stock than what you normally see with m116s. The backs are blank and as you can see in the scans, are made of a rougher, more rigid cardboard like material.
Conditionwise, with the exception of the fact that the cards were roughly torn apart and the paper reside still left on the backs from where the poster was originally glued to something else, there is actually very little wear on the cards and they're all in pretty decent shape.
I bought all six of these cards
individually on Ebay originally without really knowing what they were ahead of time, so they did not come to me as a group. Factoring that, and the obvious fact that there's not been anything like this really offered up before, I'm not really sure what to ask in return. So I'll list them for trade to start off with. I could use t204s, e107 commons, d311s and maybe other oddities? Cash offers are certainly welcome too.
Thanks in advance...
