Trade Cards

Trade cards were printed on fine-quality paper, distributed with deliveries and given-away or sold at trade counters. These fine examples offered service information and, through their decorative styles, impressed upon customers the engravers’ and retailers’ wishes to be viewed as informed and fashion-conscious craftsmen.
