Great picture. I'd never seen it before.

Where did you get it from?
Clicking on the image takes you to the source. I probably should have mentioned it in the post: it is from Nostalgia's Attic. They sell old collectible tidbits.
If you search "cigarette cards" on eBay today there are over 2000 listings.
There's something slightly creepy about this picture, and I can't put my finger on what it is.
Maybe it's the pince-nez that cuts off his left eye. Or maybe it's because Chesterton is one ugly dude.
