Description: This Tobacco card (also referred to as a Cigarette Card ) was issued by the W. Duke and Son’s Co. as an insert premium in their brands of Tobacco and Cigarettes during 1888. It is one from a series of 50 of cards entitled , “FISHERS AND FISHING” and is designated as series N74 in Burdick’s American Card Catalogue. There are two graphic styles of the cards in this series. One showing an image of just the featured fish itself, and the other style showing a young lady catching the featured fish with a rod and hook. . The back of the cards are the same and feature a list of all of the cards in the series. The fish featured here is a POMPANO. The Lithography for the card was done by the Knapp co of New York. The Card measures 2 3/4 inches by 1 7/16 inches approximately. The card does have some lighter creasing and some edge and corner wear. I think it still displays well, considering it is over 130 years old. I have scanned the card fairly large for you to be able to judge condition for your self. This card would make an excellent addition to any FISHING memorabilia collection. 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.
