The Gail & Ax Novelties (ACC# N122) set consists of 25 unnumbered cards. This is a die-cut set that shows pictures of women on various objects or “novelties”. The cards are die-cut in various shapes such as mirrors, fans, etc… The backs of each card just show the Gail & Ax logo, no checklist.
The ACC lists this set as also being distributed by Duke, but no cards with a Duke branded back have been seen.
This set was issued around 1889 and was found packed with the Navy Long Cut brand.
