7 Different 19th Century Virginia Brights Cards of Actresses Russell, Sara Bernhardt.
Lot 680. 7 Different 19th Century Virginia Brights Cards of Actresses Russell, Sara Bernhardt. When I was a kid acting melodramatically, my mother would say, “You’re a regular Sara Bernhardt.” Now I know who she was talking about. These 1 ½” x 2 ½” black & white cards came packaged with Virginia Brights Cigarettes. Six show Lillian Russell in different poses. All of the backs are clean; 5 cards show strong contrast. The sixth card has good contrast. One card is ex-m, three ex+, one ex and one g. The Sara Bernhardt card is vg-ex. All seven read “Pure and Sweet, Virginia Brights Cigarette, the Favorite Smoke” on the back.
Winning Bid $92.
