EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures the essence of John A. Sleicher, a prominent figure in 19th-century American journalism. The portrait is part of the American Editors series produced by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands in 1887. Sleicher, dressed in a formal suit and coat, exudes an air of authority befitting his occupation as editor at the Albany Evening Journal in Albany, New York. His handlebar moustache adds to his distinguished appearance while his spectacles suggest an intellectual demeanor. The attention to detail in this lithograph showcases the craftsmanship of the era. Every line and shading brings out Sleicher's facial features with precision. The text accompanying the image provides historical context without mentioning any commercial use or affiliation with Allen & Ginter. Displayed at The Met Museum, this heritage art piece serves as a testament to both Sleicher's contribution to journalism and the artistic techniques employed during that time period. It transports viewers back to a bygone era when newspapers were printed using traditional methods like lithography. As we admire this trade card turned museum artifact, it reminds us of how far media has come since then but also highlights the importance of preserving our journalistic heritage for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
