A side effect of this research was that I had an idea for using a photo of Maude Fealy as the cover of the Lizzie Lott book I was writing at the time. Rather than risk getting sued for using an image off the Internet with a watermark embedded or something, I bought some originals off eBay for about £1. Here they are:
They're cards that originally came in packets of Ogden's Guinea Gold Cigarettes, along with the usual cancer-causing contents.
Later, I won a mini photo-frame in a Christmas cracker. It's an exact fit for the cigarette cards. I was tempted to put one of the cards in it, but two things stopped me:
1) The photos arrived together sealed in a special plastic wallet. I can't get them out without cutting them out. Then, I won't be able to put them back without their falling out.
2) I wouldn't want to risk that my wife might take affront to my having a framed photo of another woman, even if she did die in 1971.
Mind you, if the photo frame had been circular I would probably not only have cut open the wallet but cut the card into a circle so as to fit it, as I actually want a circular image for the cover for my book.
