National types of beauty was a series of real photo cigarette cards distributed in the 1930s.

Some of the women portrayed were well-known actresses in their country, such as Anna May Wong from China, Frances Doble from Canada and Greta Nissen from Sweden.

The photographers were unidentified but the portraits would have been taken by major studios of the time.

Tellingly, no black women were represented but this may have more to do with their lack of recognition as actors in America and Europe than any deliberate exclusion on the part of the cigarette company.
