This is a large series of trade cards, showing the arms and flags of countries. The series is not dated, but based on the images on the cards, as well as the names of countries, can be dated as <1910. The series was printed in Holland, but the printer, nor the designer is known. | This is a large series of trade cards, showing the arms and flags of countries.

The design was, however, also used in the UK on postcards and cogarette cards. | ||
