Trade cards from the "Actors and Actresses" Second Series (N71), issued in a set of 50 cards in 1888-90 to promote W. Duke Sons & Co. brand cigarettes. This is a rare error, or mis-printed, card identified by Burdick. The verso text is from the First Series of the Actors and Actresses series (N70) instead of the correct text from the Second Series (N71) versos.
