Pair of Framed Reproduction 'Cope's Golfers' Cigarette Cards

Originally produced by Cope Bros. & Co. Ltd in 1904 as a series of 50 cigarette cards, these two frames pictures have ten reproductions of them - card numbers 41 to 48, 3 and 50 which were reprinted in the 1980s.

A 'Who's who?' of golfers of the era, the original cards were produced from watercolour paintings by George Pipeshank

Some of the great names in the 50 card series included Tom Morris, Horace Hutchinson , Andrew Lang and even Charles I swinging a club.

Condition: Very good overall. Slight marks on some edges of the frames give a 'distressed antique look' to the pictures. Slight foxing to a couple of cards.

Modern brown/gold wood frame with cloth and gold coloured mounts.

Frame size: 39.5 cm x 24 cm

Image size: 24.5 cm x 9 cm
