This chromolithograph, part of the "Presidential Possibilities" series, depicts James G. Blaine, a prominent American politician from Maine. Created in 1888 by W. Duke, Sons & Co., the tobacco company, this card was used to promote their "Honest Long Cut Tobacco." The realistic portrait captures Blaine's distinguished appearance and features a detailed depiction of his face, beard, and clothing. The image was likely intended to appeal to the public and associate the tobacco company with successful and influential figures.
