Description: This week I'm offering a number of old non-sport cards from various vintage sets. The I.M.R. card company of New York was a competitor to the Exhibit card company, later known as Mutoscope (which is where the middle initial in I.M.R. came from), and in the 1920's they issued a series of distinctively pink-tinted cards, 3 ½ x 5 ½ blank-backed on heavy card stock, sold in penny arcade machines throughout the nation. I.M.R. specialized in fairly daring, risque cards. But while their Forties issues used popular pin-up illustrations that stayed on the safe line of censorship, the I.M.R. cards from the Twenties are pretty daring, even by modern standards. To put it bluntly, they featured genuine nudity, and while the photos are heavily retouched in the style of the day, there's no doubt that the young women pictured are...pretty darn close to naked. As cheesecake artwork, it's stil pretty daring, and young boys must have sought these out eagerly back in the day. Here I have an example titled "Wild Flower." It's in very nice condition (see scan). This would be a terrific addition to any collection! Shipping will be combined for multiple purchases. Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
