Persistent Sisters Series 1: Trailblazers
   Persistent Sisters - 2017

Notes: The series features notable (and sometimes overlooked) women who have 
contributed much to all lines of society, often against odds. It was originally released 
through a Kickstarter campaign. I have not seen many of the individual cards, thus 
help in filling info gaps would be appreciated. Further information and scans are 
posted at the Persistant Sisters website.

Pack: 10 cards including 6 base cards.
