This chromolithograph, created by the Kinney Brothers Tobacco Company, is a portrait of a woman from the *Novelties* series of trading cards. Issued in 1889, this small, circular card features a woman in profile, depicted in a simple blue dress and with elaborately curled blonde hair. This portrait is a prime example of the *trade card* genre, a popular form of advertising in the late 19th century. The card was likely given away with tobacco products.
