America (Indian), from the Natives in Costume series (N16) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands 1886

This 1886 lithograph, titled "America (Indian)", is part of the *Natives in Costume* series produced by Allen & Ginter as trade cards for their cigarette brand. The image depicts a Native American man standing with a spear in a landscape reminiscent of the American West. The colorful, stylized design typical of the period, uses bright colors and bold lines to depict the man's headdress, clothing, and surroundings. This card, like others in the series, provides a glimpse into the prevailing attitudes towards Native Americans in the late 19th century.
