FOR COLLECTORS OF DE RESZKE CIGARETTE CARDS

Again! It's always a little exciting when we can identify or shed more light on a reader's flea market find.....

And so.....From our friends at European Film Star Postcards: For Collectors of De Reszke Cigarette Cards 

We continue our Saturday posts on British film postcard series with De Reszke postcards (CLICK ON THE PHOTO FOR THE SCARLET PIMPERNEL LESLIE HOWARD AND MERLE OBERON). De Reske was a, now forgotten, British cigarette brand. It was named after Jean de Reszke (1850-1925), a famous Polish opera star of the late 19th century, and advertised as 'the Aristocrat of Cigarettes'....In 1927, Millhoff sold out to Godrey Phillips, an international company which was a fellow competitor. In the early 1930s, Godfrey Phillips Associated brands published this series of hand-coloured film star postcards.
