Fishing, from the Games and Sports series (N165) for Old Judge Cigarettes 1889

"Fishing" is a chromolithograph from the "Games and Sports" series of trading cards produced for Old Judge Cigarettes in 1889 by Goodwin & Company. The card depicts a woman wearing a large hat and a red and white striped shirt fishing from the banks of a stream. In the background, a man and another woman, also dressed in fishing garb, are fishing with rods. This card, now held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, exemplifies the late 19th-century fascination with outdoor recreation, and is a classic example of a chromolithograph, a popular printing technique at the time.
