[Advertising Chromolithograph for Fleischmann Yeast]

N.p. [Fleischmann & Co.], n.d. [ca. 1900?]. No stated edition. Unbound sheet. Ca. 6 1/2 x 7 1/2 inches, printed on card stock. Cut down from a larger size, with loss of frame. Lower left corner is creased, old flyspecks along right edge. Removed from an album (glue traces on back). Fair. Item #30821

Brightly colored scene of a salesman delivering packets of compressed Fleischmann yeast to a city grocery store. His delivery van, drawn by a sturdy cob, is emblazoned with gold and red signs for the yeast. A bakery is seen in the distance. The firm's name Fleischmann & Co. dates the ad to between 1881 and 1905. Perhaps originally a store display card? Imperfect but if framed would make a ccolorful and appealing display piece. Can be sent outside the US for less than the default shipping rate. Sold as is.

Price: $15.00
