This is a chromolithograph from the "National Dances" series of trading cards created by Kinney Bros. Tobacco Company in 1889. The card depicts a Neapolitan dancer holding a fishing net and wearing a striped shirt, blue pants, a red cap, and sandals. The card's colorful design and bold imagery are characteristic of late 19th-century trade cards, which were often used to advertise tobacco products. The card's simple design and bright colors make it a visually appealing artifact of 19th-century American culture, offering a glimpse into the popular entertainment of the time.
