Turmac - arms and flags


Franeker.tur.jpg

Company

These silks were issued by the Turmac cigarette company. Turmac was founded in 1920 in Zevenaar, the Netherlands as a specialist in TURkisch-MACedonian tobacco, hence the name. A few years later the company moved to Amsterdam. They stared to produce albums with paper trade cards in 1928, showing movie stars. In 1928 followed by an album with flags of countries participating in the Amsterdam Olympics.
In 1929 they started the production of silks for the album 'Alle landen vereenigd' (All countries united), showing 166 arms and flags of the countries of the world. These did not show the name of the country though. In 1933 a new enlarged album number 2 with 249 silks was issued, with the name of the country on the silk. In 1933 a third album 'Door steden en dorpen' (Through cities and villages) was issued with the arms of Dutch towns and villages, as well as some historical arms. This album was never finished, due to prohibition of tobacco advertising.

  • Cover of album 1

In the meantime the company also issued more albums with paper cards. None of these were heraldic. After the Second World War the company issued one more flag album under the Vaandrig brand, but no heraldry albums.


Albums 1 and 2

  • Series name : Arms and flags of countries
  • Date of issue : 1929-1933
  • Number of cards  : 166+249
  • Image variants : plenty, the silks were issued in a number of colours. The first album had black silks only, but later series include multiple colours. All these can be found mixed up in both the first album (no country names) ans in the second album.
