Infantry, United States Army, 1847, from the Military Series (N224) issued by Kinney Tobacco Company to promote Sweet Caporal Cigarettes 1888

"Infantry, United States Army, 1847," is a chromolithograph from a set of trade cards created by Kinney Brothers Tobacco Company in 1888 to promote their Sweet Caporal Cigarettes. The card depicts a uniformed infantryman from the mid-19th century, standing at ease with his musket, against a background of a patterned design. The illustration is a prime example of the trade card series, known for its detailed depictions of American history and military themes. The card's small size, measuring 2 3/4 × 1 1/2 inches, suggests that it was intended for personal use and collection. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City houses the card today.
