Original 19th-Century Advertising Trade Card — Foster, Higgins & Co. Clothing, Taunton, Massachusetts
This beautiful and vibrant antique trade card promotes Foster, Higgins & Co., a large New England clothing retailer with 27 stores, located at 45 Main St., Taunton, Massachusetts.
The front features a charming farm scene showing a farmer plowing a field with a horse team, accented by lush yellow roses and marked "Spring" at the lower corner — a lovely seasonal Victorian design.
The reverse side highlights an extensive list of "bargains for the multitude," advertising a variety of overcoats, dress overcoats, underwear, gloves, shirts, collars, cuffs, and more at competitive prices. This glimpse into 19th-century retail marketing is both interesting and collectible.
Approximate size: ~3 x 4.5 inches
Condition:
Some age-related toning and foxing on the reverse
Edge/corner wear, minor paper loss or surface wear at bottom of reverse side as shown
Front colors remain vivid and bright
