This 1889 lithograph, "U.S.S. New Ironsides", from the "Naval Vessels of the World" series by the Kinney Bros. Tobacco Company, depicts a historic American ironclad sailing ship. The image showcases the ship's impressive size and its prominent mast, a key feature of the vessel's design. The detailed representation of the sails and the rolling waves adds to the realism of the artwork. The image was likely intended to be included in a cigarette card pack, highlighting the popularity of such collectible cards in the late 19th century.
