English Mastiff, from the Dogs of the World series for Old Judge Cigarettes 1890

This chromolithograph, created by Goodwin & Company in 1890, depicts an English Mastiff standing in profile. It was part of a series of cigarette cards titled "Dogs of the World" for Old Judge Cigarettes. The image is a simple yet detailed representation of the breed, showcasing the Mastiff's imposing stature and characteristic wrinkled face. The card's small size, measuring 3.8 x 7.1 cm, suggests it was intended for a mass audience and reflects the popularity of collecting cigarette cards in the late 19th century. The artwork is currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
