Speed [different] Player's Cigarettes - 1938 Player's Cigarettes (Eire) - 1938 Wills's Cigarettes - 1938
Notes: Cards are approximately 1-3/8" x 2-5/8". The "different" differentiates the set, with its titles in black, from a 1930 set with the same name (usually desribed as "title in white"). Speed is a relative thing, so don't expect The Queen Mary to match the velocity of the Comet Racer.
