This colorful lithograph, "Point Judith," is part of the "Lighthouses" series created by W. Duke, Sons & Co. in 1889 to advertise their "Honest Long Cut" tobacco. The image depicts the Point Judith Lighthouse in Rhode Island, a prominent landmark for sailors navigating the Atlantic coast. The artwork's bright colors and charming style make it a unique example of trade card art, which often featured scenic or historical subjects to appeal to potential customers.
