This is a cigarette card from the *Actresses series* produced by Wm. S. Kimball & Co. in 1889. The card features a black and white photograph of a young woman, who is identified as "Princess". The image is a typical example of the photographic style of the late 19th century, and is a fascinating glimpse into the world of entertainment in the late 19th century.
