There are at least six
cards in this series from 1908
and they are very distinctive in their style These
cards
are printed from black and white ink drawings,
then have what looks like watercolor added in a few
areas.
The title of the series is a bit of a lame pun
on "series" and "serious." The artist's signature is
hard to decipher,
but it appears to be H. Numrich. These cards are also interesting in that the men in
them tend to be fairly old,
even elderly in some cases.
