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

Here's a cute vintage advertising card showing two adorable puppies next to a pile of straw. One dog is sleeping while the other remains vigilant. I believe the original artist for this illustration was Helena Maguire, although no signature is visible.

The back of the card consists of a "CERTIFICATE of PURITY", attesting to, among other things, that Lion Coffee "is entirely free from glazing or doctoring of any kind".

Size: approx. 4" x 5.5"

Date: Not dated.

Lithographer: Not identified.

Condition: Very good, I'd say. This card is lightly soiled, with just slightly worn edges and corners. There are creases across both lower corners. (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.
