Coffee company Paulig started the possibly first collecting craze amongst Finnish children in 1953 when they started to print pictures of cars, trucks, motorcycles and other vehicles on the cardboard seals which were used in coffee packets at the time. Other companies soon followed with their own versions but none of them could match the popularity of Paulig.

Coffee was still a luxury item here in 50's. Finland was a very poor country after the war and importing of goods was limited.
Full collection of these cards was probably quite hard task to accomplish.
