Miss Salmon, from the Actresses series (N245) issued by Kinney Brothers to promote Sweet Caporal Cigarettes 1890

"Miss Salmon" is a 1890s trade card from the "Actresses" series issued by the Kinney Brothers Tobacco Company to promote their Sweet Caporal cigarettes. The card features a photograph of a woman, likely a popular stage actress of the era, Miss Salmon, in a fashionable outfit of the period. The image is a striking example of the use of portraiture in advertising and offers a glimpse into the popular culture of late 19th century America.
