Eolian, from The World's Racers series (N32) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes 1888

"Eolian" is a chromolithograph from the "The World's Racers" series of trading cards produced by Allen & Ginter in 1888. The card features a detailed depiction of a racehorse in motion, with a jockey mounted on its back. The horse is depicted in a dynamic pose, with its legs extended in a gallop, showcasing the artist's ability to capture movement. This card is a prime example of late-19th century American advertising, as it served as a promotional tool for Allen & Ginter's cigarettes. The card's small size and intricate detail make it a fascinating artifact of the time.
