"Lilac (Syringa Vulgaris)" from the Flowers series for Old Judge Cigarettes, is a charming chromolithograph created by Goodwin & Company in 1890. The card depicts a close-up view of a lilac blossom against a pink background, showcasing the delicate details of the flower's structure and color. This card was likely part of a set of collectible trading cards that were popular in the late 19th century, often featuring images of flora and fauna. The card's small size, 2 3/4 x 1 1/2 in., makes it a delightful and intricate example of botanical illustration.
