Description: Up for sale is this extremely rare 1913-1914 Moffat's Sweetmeats "CINEMA ARTISTES" silent film star card of...No. 95 MARY PICKFORD of the Famous Players' Film Co. Mary Pickford was the biggest actress of the 1910's and 1920's - the "Queen of the Movies"!Incredibly scarce card here. Issued in England by Moffat Bros. in their confectionery products. Size is approx. 2 1/4" x 3 1/4".This is one of the earliest sets to exclusively feature silent film stars. There are 100 cards in the complete set, which was issued in 4 waves of 25. The first wave was released in early 1913 and it ran until 1914. These are as rare as it gets when it comes to silent film star trading cards. To say they're seldom seen is an understatement.The card pictured is the exact one you'll receive. It's in approx. VG condition (3 out of 10). There is some light creasing near the top leaf corner, and a single crease near the center, edge wear, and surface marks/wear. The bottom border is short but I do not believe it to be trimmed. I have a bunch of cards from this set and many of them look like this. Just poorly cut from the factory. This is an incredibly rare card. USPS Ground Advantage shipping is $5.Auction is open to U.S. bidders only.All sales are final. No returns. Any questions you may have please ask before bidding/buying.Thank you for looking!
