About This Item
Cleveland: Johns & Co Lith, n.y. [ca. 1880]. Single, heavy stock card. 4½" X 3". Charming late 19th century trade card. Near fine. Black and white recto depicts two nearly identical side-by-side scenes: at left a woman seated in a Victorian parlor sews by candlelight, straining to see the work in her lap while a cloud above her head indicates she dreams of sitting comfortably in front of a proper tabletop newfangled sewing machine; at right a women sits in front of just such a machine -- domestic bliss! Verso is blank.
