Description: Here we have an early advertising trade card / folder issued by the O.F. Rawson & Co. of Manufactures and Importers of Fine Cigars and Proprietors of the La Cigale Fatory Worchester Massachusetts in the USA to advertise their brand of La Cigale Cigars. It is set up as a fold over folder or pamphlet, and printed on paper stock. It features a young lady in a forest done in sepia tones on the back The bottom of the image features the words ”Copyright 1888 O.F. Rawson & Co.” The front has advertising from the company. The inside pages also have advertising for the company and the poem “La Cigale et La Fourmi”. It measures 4 ¼ inches by 5 ½ inches approximately when closed. The card has some edge wear, and a corner bend and a few wrinkles. I think it displays nicely. I have scanned the front and back and inside, both open and closed for you to be able to judge condition for yourself. 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.
