Over the years these picked up the nickname “blankets” because many of them were sewn together to form blankets. There are many different color variations. Much more affordable than cards of the same era, these display great with nice eye appeal. We were fortunate enough to pick up a nice grouping from an old-timer who had inherited them years ago.
