This print showcases a vintage trade card from 1891, featuring the exquisite "Malaga Grapes" as part of the renowned Fruits series (N12) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands. Issued by Allen & Ginter American, this trade card was one of fifty cards created to promote their distinguished brand of cigarettes during that era. The image captures the allure and richness of Malaga grapes, enticing viewers with its vibrant colors and luscious appearance. The attention to detail is remarkable, highlighting each grape's unique texture and the delicate interplay between light and shadow. It transports us back in time to an era when such trade cards were highly sought after collectibles. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Fine Art Storehouse, this print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic value but also serves as a historical artifact. It offers a glimpse into early advertising strategies employed by tobacco companies in their quest for market dominance.
