These trading (?) cards are great. I loved seeing illustrations like these in the school library's collection of history books.
Those books were old even then.

Don't know if they were trading cards or just issued by John Player with the cigarettes packs as some kind of marketing.

The booklet wasn't dated but by the airplanes and airlines it must be published in the late 30s.

100th Bomb Group en route to Hamburg March 30th 1945. Considering the date, this was probably the last 8th AF mission to that often targetted city.
