Description: Victorian Trade Card - LION COFFEE, Woolson Spice Co., Toledo, Ohio

Here's an interesting vintage advertising card featuring a bird who's apparently just made an unsuccessful attempt to snag a dragonfly, and only ended up with one of the insect's wings in its beak. Wildflowers appear all around the card.

The back carries the company's standard advertising with the profile of a lion and a branch of flowers.

Size: approx. 6" x 4.125"

Date: Not dated.

Lithographer: Not identified.

Condition: Good, I'd say. This card is only lightly soiled, with just slightly worn edges and somewhat banged-up corners. The lower right corner has a couple diagonal creases, while the two upper corners both have tiny, but very sharp, creases. (Please see scans.)

MULTIPLE ITEM SHIPPING DISCOUNT: I will ship up to 4 cards for the single base shipping charge shown. For purchases of more than 4 cards, the shipping charge will increase by just a small increment for every 4 additional cards.
