Description: Here we have an early advertising trade card issued by the Mayo Tobacco in the USA to advertise their Eglantine and Ivy brand of Tobacco. Although I have not been able to find an exact date of issue in any reference guide that I am aware of, but an educated guess is that is was more than likely issued at some point during the 1890’s. It measures 6 5/8 inches by 5 inches approximately. It features an image of the Hawthone Manse in Concord Mass. Aka the Old Manse, which Hawthorne rented off Ralph Waldo Emerson who owned it. The card features a facsimile signature of Hawthorne and a quote from one of his books. The back is blank as it was issued. The card has some lighter edge wear, and aa corner crease, the back also has some discoloration. I think it displays nicely. I will be trying to list several EARLY TRADE & TYPE CARDS over the next few days (spread across different categories), including one or two that are unrecorded in any guide, that were put given away with Tobacco, Cigarettes , Caramel, Candy, Gum, Chocolate, Bread Coffee Tea Cereal and other products, covering such diverse subjects as Native American Indians , Baseball , Football, Boy Scouts, Ice Hockey, Golf, Presidents of the United States, NCAA and IVY League Colleges and Universities, Dog Breeds, Circus themes and many more.
