Lot # 2847: 1902-1903 T7-3 Turkish Trophies "Bathing Girls" Complete Set (12)

Complete set of twelve "Bathing Girls" from the T7 Turkish Trophies "Hamilton King Girls" tobacco premiums series. The T7 "Hamilton King Girls" are rare and among the most striking nonsport tobacco premiums ever issued. These premiums feature magnificent full-color artistic drawings of pretty women. The set is organized into six separate series, each with a different theme: "Sketches," "Girls," "Bathing Girls," "Period Gowns," "Flag Girls," and "Bathing-Athletic-Dancing Girls." The twelve T7 premiums in this group feature all twelve subjects from the "Bathing Girls" series. Condition is Vg overall, with a couple Vg-Ex and one lesser due to a small edge tear. T7s are big cards; due to their large size they tend to be subject to a little more corner wear and creases than smaller cards. Colorful, scarce, and beautifully lithographed, this is a very rarely offered set of these quality nonsport tobacco premiums. Total: 12 premiums.
