Released by Sociedade Nacional de Fósforos presumably in the early sixties, the series – which, in ignorance of the official title, I choose to call – "Calhambeques", comprises 15 matchbooks (50x42x7 mm, ? g) with polychromatic illustrations by F. J. (?), printed on semi-gloss cardboard. On the cover, the illustrations represent, in a somewhat stylized way, pioneering motor vehicles from the Victorian and Edwardian periods. On the back cover, we have the vehicle brand below and above, inside a red square, the date of manufacture. As a note of interest, there is a later, identical series, with 25 matchbooks and, naturally, with ten more illustrations. In this larger collection, the square on the back cover is red. ●

In this image, we see on our left a matchbook from the series with the green square on the back cover – all the others are from the series with the red square. Fifteen of the illustrations are shared by both series, but with different numbers. ●
