Hassan Lighthouse Cards - 05/17/01 04:56 AM

I am wondering if anyone can help with this question?
I know the Hassan tobacco cards are sold and traded. I am speaking of the original ones from approx. year 1910. Now my question. Do each carry approximately the same value on the secondary market or are there certain cards that would be considered rarer? I don't really collect cards of any type, but I do have an interest in these since Harbour Lights reproduced this set a couple of years ago.
I would appreciate any info or a source where I could research this topic. You would think collecting Harbour Lights would be enough,but ....

The cards that I've seen on ebay pretty much go for the same price. ($3-$5) Obviously the more popular LHs will get more bids and a higher price. Full sets or close to full sets demand a much higher price. Like anything else patience will get you what you want at a reasonable price. Most Hassan Cards I've seen of LHs I know, have very little resemblance to the real thing. (Artist priviledge?)
