"Willonyby, from the Actors and Actresses series (N171) for Old Judge Cigarettes" is a cabinet card photograph by Goodwin & Company, produced between 1886 and 1890. This collectible card features an image of a woman, presumably an actress named Willonyby, posed in a theatrical costume. The card is part of a larger series of similar images promoting Old Judge Cigarettes. These cards were popular during the late 19th century and are now highly sought-after by collectors of ephemera and historical artifacts. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City houses this small but significant piece of American cultural history.
