Salmon, from the series Fishers and Fish (N74) for Duke brand cigarettes 1888

"Salmon", a chromolithograph from the "Fishers and Fish" series of cigarette cards created by Knapp & Company in 1888, depicts a single salmon swimming against a light green background. The card is a prime example of the trend of using collectible cards to promote consumer products during the late 19th century. "Salmon" is an example of the Naturalist style, focusing on detailed depiction of the subject, which was common in illustrations for early trading cards. The card is now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where it is a popular part of their collection of Americana.
