This chromolithograph card features a woman wearing a large, feathered hat and collar. It is one of a series of cards created by the W. Duke, Sons & Co. tobacco company to promote their "Honest Long Cut" brand of tobacco. The cards were intended to be collectible items and likely circulated among consumers to boost brand recognition. The artwork displays a popular trend of the late 19th century, promoting products through charming and collectible illustrations. The realistic depiction of the woman, likely an actress of the day, showcases the artistic skill and detail of the chromolithography printing process.
