Cigarette cards were issued during a significant time in the history of mankind, 1870s-1930s. These encyclopaedic cards captured the Precambrian explosion in 20th century innovation and social upheaval that propelled us into our modern age. Even the cigarette cards were the creation of rapid improvements in colour printing technology and competitive pressures of an expanding free market. It's possible that these humble, everyday items helped to accelerate information democracy itself at a time when books were still quite expensive to the average person.

I've been collecting and trading in cigarette cards for 22 years now and started trading on eBay in 2000. As well as the cards, I've also been collecting a vast treasure trove of data and scans of the rare and unusual cards that I've been trading on eBay. This information was of great use when many of my customers' asked me to locate cards depicting their famous ancestors: movie stars, soccer players and war heroes. I've decided to open the doors to my archives to create the very first eBay Picture Card Museum, helping collectors and people interested in history. I hope you enjoy exploring the vast range of topics as much as I have.
