1937 card album with 100 rare cardboard cards from Cuba. Each is 2.75x2" and depicts the best characters we have ever seen in one card set. Includes thirty-nine of Mickey, Horace, and all the Disney gang (lots of obscurities), Betty Boop, Popeye and friends, Little King, Mandrake, Tarzan, Felix, and many more. Best of all are tinted images of the animators: Walt Disney, Segar & Max Fleischer. Background papers with magnificent images of Betty Boop, Donald, Clarabell Cow & more. Even the cover is great, with long-billed Donald prosing to Snow White and Popeye riding Pluto to find Olive Oil using her angry photograph. We have never seen the cards, let alone a complete album. Album has a taped spine and creasing; cards are glued in, o/w EX.
