Which translates to "Modern Gallery of Beauties"
So it was BBCE's Ebay page that first brought these unique cards to my attention, I can't believe how "high tech" they were able to make these cards, we would not see this kind of thing on baseball cards until the early 90s! And I think pre-WWII non-sport sets about attractive women would make a neat unique niche part of my collection and usually are surprisingly much more affordable than the always expensive baseball cards of pre-WWII era! In this case, did I do okay for $150?

I don't know if these will ever show up as sets or near sets (and especially not affordably) but so far I find these two attractive women sets to be the most interesting:

PS: Now it's just a matter of finding out what kind of BCW or Ultra-Pro pages/sheets will fit these...

Okay, this is driving me CRAZY...how come when I try to find 12 pocket sheets for these all I get in my Ebay searches are for VINYL pages? I thought as far back as the mid-90s or so PVC/vinyl pages were phased out! So what am I supposed to do for finding 12 pocket Ultra Pro or BCW pages for these unique cards and be sure I'm getting the good safe polypro kind and not the smelly dangerous vinyl/PVC kind?
