"St. Bernard (Smooth)" is a chromolithograph from the "Dogs of the World" series created by Goodwin & Company in 1890 for Old Judge Cigarettes. The image, a depiction of a St. Bernard dog, showcases the breed's characteristic large size and gentle expression, complete with the iconic barrel around its neck. These collectible cards, popular in the late 19th century, were often included in packs of cigarettes, adding to the allure of the product and becoming sought-after items for collectors. This particular card, measuring 1 1/2 x 2 13/16 inches, can be viewed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
