Description: This scarce card was issued by the COMMONWEALTH LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY of Louisville Kentucky. I have not been able to find this series listed in any of the guides that I am aware of (A.C.C., Non Sports Bible, Sports Americana ect.) but I speculate the series to have been issued some time during the 1920’s. The front of the card features an illustration of a man or woman wearing the tradition costume of the Nation holding a flag of the Nation. THIS CARD FEATURES ECUADOR Interestingly the image used is similar to that used by the Baltimore Chewing Gum co on there R52 series and the D58 series issued by Webber Bread. The back provides information about the featured country and gives the title of the series “48 Nations of the World” (I imagine there are 48 cards in the set then), as well as advertising for the company. The Card measures 5 7/16 inches by 3 3/16 inches approximately. The card does have some slight edge and corner wear, and a surface wrinkle to the back. I have scanned the front and back of the card fairly large so you can determine the condition for yourself. I will be trying to list several EARLY TRADE & TYPE CARDS over the next few days (spread across different categories), including one or two that are unrecorded in any guide, that were put given away with Tobacco, Cigarettes , Caramel, Candy, Gum, Chocolate, Bread Coffee Tea Cereal and other products, covering such diverse subjects as Native American Indians , Baseball , Football, Boy Scouts, Ice Hockey, Golf, Presidents of the United States, NCAA and IVY League Colleges and Universities, Dog Breeds, Circus themes and many more.
