Floreston Cologne chromolithographed triptych trade card
New York: Wemple & Company, 1900. Very Good+. Item #47798
New York: Wemple & Company, 1900? Fold-out and free-standing chromolithographed triptych trade card with advertising on verso for both Floreston Cologne and Parker's hair balsams and tonics (14cm). Two outer panels show vases with flowers (pink peonies and blue forget-me-nots) while the middle panel features a pensive child wearing a heavy bonnet. Margins rubbed and corners gently bumped; Verso margins scuffed and joint printing lightly faded. A scarce and Very Good or better example of quackery ephemera. For the low price of a bottle of perfume or by sending in your six cents and address you too could own one of these "screens."
