General, from the Occupations for Women series (N166) for Old Judge and Dogs Head Cigarettes 1887

"General", from the "Occupations for Women" series, is a trade card from 1887 by Goodwin & Company. The card depicts a woman in a military uniform, holding a sword and standing next to a table with a pen, inkwell, and a piece of paper, implying her occupation as a military leader. The image is a colorful chromolithograph, a printing technique popular during the 19th century, adding vibrancy to the design. The card was likely distributed to promote Old Judge and Dogs Head cigarettes, which were popular tobacco brands at the time. These cards were collectibles, and the "Occupations for Women" series served as a humorous representation of women in various professions.
