As can be seen almost immeadiately from the checklist this is a departure for Wills cigarette cards in depicting cinema stars from the golden age.

Obviously most cards show more than one actor on them and are from a scene in a film.   Naturally the name of the film from which the scene is taken is also written on the front of the card so I include that information here for the sake of completeness.

An interesting departure from the normal method of presenting cinema stars on cards and more in keeping with the how the cinema audience would normally see them.

It probably will not escape your notice this is the set that contains Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse.
