Tyrolean, from National Dances (N225, Type 1) issued by Kinney Bros. 1889

"Tyrolean," from the "National Dances" series of cards issued by the Kinney Brothers Tobacco Company in 1889, is a depiction of a man in traditional Tyrolean garb, performing a dance. The image captures the colorful and intricate details of Tyrolean dress, including the man's feathered hat, embroidered vest, and knee-high stockings. This card is a prime example of the popular collecting trend of the late 19th century, where companies like Kinney Brothers used cards to promote their products while offering a glimpse into diverse cultures and traditional activities. Today, these cards are highly sought after by collectors and museums, such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where this card is currently housed.
