I found these cards in an old box along with some old postcards etc and was wondering if anyone could help identify and date them?

Many thanks

Assuming the cards have the same back design as shown on the box (i.e., a lady holding a tennis racquet), your pack dates from 1927. The designer's name was William Henry Barribal (1873-1956). His signature appears lower left on the card.
