Background:

Most of the prints featured on our Web site are original antique prints dating from the late 1700s through early 1900s.

Occasionally we come across reproductions of prints that are unique and address an interest that our clients have.  We are pleased to present these reproductions of English cigarette cards featuring "Rigs of Ships".  The cards were originally issued by Wills Cigarettes in 1929.

Each matted print features a series of any 4 cards.  You can select the cards you want to appear on the mat.   When you place your order just specify the Card Numbers or names of the Ships you have chosen.  Accompanying the print is an interesting narrative on the history of the cigarette card.

These cards make an ideal gift for the sailing (or any sports) enthusiast!
