Each book in overall fair to good condition with cracked hinges and one with a missing spine. Most cigarette pictures are in good condition with only minor creasing. Some images have slipped from their photo corners within each book. Each card overall good condition with wear commensurate with age. Most with tearing and abrasion along the right edge. Some adhered to one another in small stacks along the right edge. There are repeated motifs throughout this deck, so there is not 50+ distinct pin-up girls in the total lot.
