Weights Cigarettes, 1920
Players Weights circular counter card. The background of the circle is blue. It is bisected with a broad, yellow bar and so slightly resembles the London Underground logo. In the lower section there is a lit cigarette and the smoke from it drifts up the length of the card. The text reads " PLAYERs // " WEIGHTS" // 5 for 2d". There are small holes to top, sides and bottom suggesting the card has been stapled to something at one time. On the reverse is a support to allow the card to stand upright and a hand-written note which reads " EX. DUBLIN"
