As every Christmas, my wife asked what I wanted for Christmas. Instead of my normal "nothing", I asked for cigarette cards. After a brief description, she simply gave me the "you're crazy!" look and said ok. I ordered several lots that consisted of Massachusetts militia uniforms. I also ordered several pages of card holders, so I can finally take them out of the old box that I've lost several times. There are several duplicates, but at least I have all the Massachusetts cards that I know of. I have posted below the collection of Massachusetts cards, even ones I have shown before.
A fine and colourful choice of gift - Happy Christmas John!
