"Coach Dog" is a chromolithograph from the "Dogs of the World" series created by Goodwin & Company in 1890 for Old Judge Cigarettes. The artwork depicts a Dalmatian, a breed known for its distinctive spotted coat, standing in profile against a light blue background with subtle stippling. The image, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a prime example of the popular trend of using animal illustrations on trading cards, showcasing both the artistry and the marketing strategies of the era.
