This is a large series of trade cards, showing the arms and flags of countries. The series is not dated, but based on the images on the cards, as well as the names of countries, can be dated as <1910. The series was printed in Holland, but the printer, nor the designer is known. The design was, however, also used in the UK on postcards and cigarette cards.

Neelmeijer's was an ink and glue producing company from Apeldoorn, the Netherlands.  The cards are not numbered. The company issued 2 series, one with a bluish back and the front text Neelmeijer & Co z.o. and one with a black text on the back with on the front Neelmeijer & Co Apeldoorn. The first series has 72 cards, the second states it only has 65 cards. I have no idea which cards were missing in series 2, as I do not have the series complete.
 
Both have been issued in different colour shades, when known these are shown below.
 
Two different backs are known :
