"Coursing" is a chromolithograph from the *Games and Sports series* (N165) for Old Judge Cigarettes, designed by Goodwin & Company in 1889. The artwork depicts a woman in a black top hat and blue coat, likely a participant in the sport of coursing. The image is presented within a yellow frame, with two people on horseback hunting with greyhounds in the background, illustrating the sport of coursing. Chromolithographs, like this one, were popular advertising techniques in the late 19th century. This card was part of a set issued with Old Judge Cigarettes. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City houses the print.
