"Mlle Rordame" is a trade card from the "Actresses" series issued by Kinney Brothers Tobacco Company in 1890 to promote Sweet Caporal Cigarettes. The card depicts a bust-length portrait of a woman wearing a hat and a low-cut, ornate dress. The image is a simple monochrome photograph, and the artwork is a prime example of the tobacco trade cards popular in the late nineteenth century. The card is part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York City.
