Wills in 1907 in their Pirate brand, and the same 50 cards were put out by British American Tobacco in 1908 under the Eagle Bird brand. Eagle Bird was a B.A.T. export brand made in the United States for overseas markets including China, Siam, India and Malaya. Because these cards were issued abroad rather than in Britain or America, they turn up less often in the domestic market than the standard Wills issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis card is over a century old.
