EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print from the 19th century showcases a whimsical scene of chimps donning fashionable clothing. The image, part of a trade card for Creme, Oat Meal Toilet Soap, exudes both humor and charm. Created by the American School and printed by Clay & Richmond in Buffalo, NY, this artwork is a testament to the creativity and ingenuity of advertising during that era. In this delightful illustration, we see chimpanzees dressed in dapper attire - complete with top hats, suits, and walking sticks - strolling through a vibrant garden. The male chimp sports an elegant suit while his female companion adorns herself with flowers and ribbons. Their outfits are remarkably detailed and reflect the fashion trends of the time. The clever juxtaposition of animals wearing human clothing adds an element of surprise to this advertisement. It not only captures attention but also highlights the product's ability to transform ordinary moments into extraordinary ones. This charming print serves as a reminder that even in our daily routines, there is room for imagination and playfulness. It invites us to embrace our own unique style while adding a touch of humor to our lives. With its rich history and artistic flair, this chromolitho print continues to captivate viewers today. It reminds us that art can be found in unexpected places – even on trade cards promoting toiletries – making it truly timeless.
