I have this deck of playing cards for many years and I have no idea where I got it, what exactly is this deck. All the cards figure US actors or actresses from the first half of the twentieth century. Thank you for any clue!
I found some other references which indicate "Maple Leaf Gum" cards or Dutch Gum cards (because they were printed in Holland).
If you check on eBay, you'll see people posting cards for sale individually. I don't know if they do that to get more money or because they don't have a full deck.
Now wait a minute. Am I dreaming? I just made a search in ebay and they have ONE card, one single card for sale at $150. And I have the whole deck..... Ok I am ready to sell it.
Check out the last post on this link. That might be a web site to peruse to help you identify if there is an audience/market for them. Just because someone is posting them for sale at that price doesn't mean anyone is buying at that price.
Edited to add: The person on the card may be what's commanding the high price on the one you saw. I saw many others which are posted for sale for only about $20. (although that is still a lot for one card).
