Description: This is an interesting & original tobacco card insert from circa 1887-1888. The card has the wording on the front ""Prest Gaamono of Equador". The card shows President Gaamono of Equador & the coat of arms & flag of Equador. This is from the Duke's Rulers, Flags, and Coats of Arms series which was issued in approximately 1887-1888. The card was issued with packages of "W. Duke Sons & Co, N. Y. Honest Long Cut Smoking and Chewing Tobacco". The back of the card has a list of the cards that were in the 51 card series. The card measures 4 3/8 inches tall by 2 1/2 inches tall. There are a few creases, worn edges & some losses at the corners. The back has a brown stain from when the card was originally, in period, glued in to an album. Also, the back has a sizable piece of paper residue from the album page that it was once attached to. There is a good chance that this residue could be successfully removed to reveal the text underneath. However, we have decided to leave the card just as we found it with this paper residue present on the back. So, it is up to the buyer as to whether or not they want to make the choice & take the risk to attempt to remove the album paper residue. This beautifully designed, colorful, & scarce card is guaranteed to be original. Please examine the photos closely & purchase based on your own judgement as to condition & value.
