Description: Victorian Trade Card - LION COFFEE, Woolson Spice Co., Toledo, Ohio
Here's an interesting vintage advertising card depicting a baby lying on a bed that's inside a wooden box resting or floating in a marshy pond. There's a red umbrella over one end of the box, and very roses and water lilies scattered around the scene.
The back advertises LION COFFEE, "composed of a successful combination of MOCHA, JAVA, AND RIO".
Size: approx. 5.5" x 7.375"
Date: Not dated.
Lithographer: Not identified.
Condition: Just good, I'd say. This card is a bit soiled, with somewhat rough edges and corners. The upper left corner is nipped and the other three corners have creases of various sizes. The right edge is rather bent and there are small tears in the left and bottom margins. (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.
