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

"Coachman," from the "Occupations for Women" series, is a chromolithograph produced by Goodwin & Company in 1887 for Old Judge and Dogs Head Cigarettes. The card depicts a woman in a traditional coachman's uniform driving a carriage. This humorous image was part of a larger set of trade cards, designed to promote these tobacco brands. The card's vivid colors and playful depiction of a woman in a traditionally male role offer a glimpse into the social norms and advertising trends of the late 19th century.
