1939 Mars Confections "Famous Film Stars"
Measure 1-5/16" X 2-11/16" from Britain
Unusual set of trading cards issued with Milky Way Candy Bars in Great Britain. I say unusual because of the poses which range from the simple head shots of Lawrence Olivier and Raymond Massey to the glamour poses of Sylvia Sidney and Ida Lupino to the bizarre such as Joan Crawford playing ping-pong and the far away image of William Powell on top of a horse. Did Myrna Loy clone Asta? Strange set. But that is certainly part of its charm, along with the vibrant colors on the front.
