More about this set
About the set
- Issued in 1956. 99 cards, numbered Z 1–99.
- Mostly female film stars.
- Harder to find than 1955 X Set, which is already moderately hard.
- Sold in packs. Two wrappers are known: one reads "Serie nr 275" and "10 världsberömda FILMSTJÄRNOR i strålande färger"; the other has a star, "Serie nr 1009" and "Strålande färgbilder av världsberömda FILMSTJÄRNOR".
How to recognise
- Most cards carry a short studio mark, for example "PAR.", "M.G.M.", "W.B.", "20th CENT. FOX", "J. A. RANK", "EUR. COL.", "LONDON FILMS" or "EAGLE LION". Doris Day's cards read "WARN. BROTH.".
- The cards look much like 1955 X Set, which uses an X before the number instead.
Numbers to know
- No double numbers and no gaps.
- All 99 numbers are about equally hard to find.
