I don't really own many vintage trading cards, but I did recently pick up a set of 'Dogs By Zito' cards from the '40s on eBay, since me and my wife are dachshund owners and aficianados. Looks like this Zito chap, who was apparently a society caricaturist of the time, drew some whimsical, extremely fetching dog-related cartoons as well. Here's the first couple:
Bizarrely enough, the only page devoted to Zito that I can find appears to have pictures of the very same two cards I scanned, albeit in black and white bound form. Well, I have a set of 44 (out of 45) of the Zito cards, and just randomly happened to pick those, so I'll do so more that haven't appeared online sometime soon - they're all pretty funny, though some are mystifying to today's reader.
