    T25 Between the Acts Actors - roughly 1910 or 1911. 50 cards in the set, pretty available in off condition due to the black borders. I have a short stack of them but I'm waiting to find some in really superb condition. Haven't found any yet.image

    I saw one ad that cracked me up. Since the cards are titled Between The Acts (issued with their little cigars), this advertiser stated emphatically that these are rare cards because they were given out between the acts in theatres.image

    Hi Perry
    Cool card - these guys are totally foreign to me - dig and see if have any more!
    Thanx for posting. The black borders would make this the 71T's of the nonsport world.
