This chromolithograph, part of the "Stars of the Stage" series, was created by W. Duke, Sons & Co. in 1890 to advertise their Honest Long Cut Tobacco. The image features a woman in a green and yellow costume with a distinctive fez, suggesting a theatrical or entertainment theme. These cards were popular collector’s items in the late 19th century and offer a glimpse into the marketing practices of the time. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses this particular card, measuring 4 3/16 x 2 1/2 inches.
