The card, which dates back to circa 1935, is an exquisite example of the intricate and often overlooked artistry that adorned collectible cigarette cards during the mid-20th century.

It is a vital component of the marine ecosystem and is widely consumed as a food source. The illustration on the Wills cigarette card accurately depicts the prawn's elongated body, ten legs, and distinctive eyes. The artist of this particular card remains anonymous, but their work highlights the attention to detail and artistic skill that went into creating these collectibles.

The Wills cigarette card series was a popular collectible item during the 1930s, with various themes ranging from animals and birds to sports and transportation. These cards were often traded and collected by children and adults alike, providing a unique window into the past and a glimpse into the cultural history of the time.
