This chromolithograph print, "Grizzly Bear," is part of the "Quadrupeds" series of trading cards produced by Allen & Ginter in 1890 for their Richmond Straight Cut No. 1 Cigarettes. The image depicts a grizzly bear standing on a rocky ledge with a mountain landscape in the background, likely referencing the animal's natural habitat. These cards, designed for promotional purposes, were a popular form of entertainment during the late 19th century, contributing to the growing interest in natural history and wildlife illustration.
