Trade Card Advertisements





I thought I would take a break from the vintage photos today.  These are tradecards from the late 1800's.  They were given out free to customers to advertise products.

    Thank you for sharing these great images. The frog splashing the cologne on the bouquet is too funny! :)

    Great images. The frog splashing the cologne...priceless. Love the way he's sitting!

    Nothing beats transportation by butterfly, I could really save on gasoline! These are all great cards, Cora, thanks so much. Their condition is so much better than what I've seen.

    Wow, Cora, these are wonderful. I think my favorite is the frog - but I really like them all. Thank you so much for sharing!
