12 x Vintage Wix / B.D.V. Tobacco Silk Flag Cards — World Flags Collection c.1910s–1930s.

This is a lovely group of 12 vintage tobacco silk flag cards, issued by Wix & Sons / B.D.V. in the early 20th century. Each printed on fine silk with beautiful, vivid colours — a wonderful snapshot of world history.

The collection includes:

• 🇵🇫 Tahiti — No.7 (scarcer, French Protectorate flag)

• 🇦🇺 Tasmania — No.10

• 🏴 England — No.49

• 🇵🇦 Panama — No.50

• 🇳🇱 Netherlands Royal Standard — No.55

• 🇱🇺 Luxembourg — No.57

• 🇺🇾 Uruguay — No.44

• 🇹🇷 Turkey Royal Standard — No.5 (Ottoman era — historically interesting)

• 🇧🇬 Bulgaria / Russia — No.18 (Bulgarian flag, labelled Russia — common printing quirk in this series)

• 🇸🇻 El Salvador (Salvador) — No.20

• 🇪🇨 Ecuador — No.76

• 🏴 Naples — No.49 (Kingdom of the Two Sicilies — scarce historical flag)

Condition: Silks are bright and vivid with excellent colour retention. Minor edge fraying consistent with age; most still in protective sleeves. Light age-related toning on a couple — overall very good for their age.

Why special: This group stands out because of Tahiti, Turkey Royal Standard, and Naples — all harder-to-find issues that don't appear in every batch. Great mix of national, colonial, and historical flags.
