Motion Picture, March 1928 - Joan Crawford
All three of these covers were created by artist Marland Stone. Marland's birthdate is unknown, but he died in 1975 after a very successful career as an illustrator and artist.


These cigarette cards are four from a series of 25 entitled Cinema Stars. The artwork harkens back to an earlier style than any cards subsequently produced by Will's or the other cigarette firms. Quite beautiful. Remember these are only about 1.5x3 inches and when viewed larger, lose some of their charm.

Such beautiful covers, especially the Norma one.
I love old cards. They really were something special :)
The card of Marlene and Anna is just DIVINE!
