EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century lithograph captures the essence of John R. McLean, a prominent figure in American journalism and editor of The Cincinnati Enquirer. Commissioned by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands in 1887 as part of their American Editors series, this exquisite print showcases McLean's distinguished appearance and influential role in the media landscape. McLean is portrayed wearing a stylish coat and suit, reflecting his status as a respected editor. His well-groomed moustache and rosy cheeks add to his charismatic persona, while his piercing gaze hints at the determination that propelled him to success. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring life to McLean's image, emphasizing both his individuality and the significance of his position. As an iconic representative of Cincinnati, Ohio - one of America's thriving cities during that era - McLean played a crucial role in shaping public opinion through The Cincinnati Enquirer. This trade card serves as a testament to the impact he had on journalism and publishing during this pivotal time in history. Preserved within museum archives today, this lithographic masterpiece stands as a reminder of an era when newspapers were at the forefront of information dissemination. It not only pays homage to John R. McLean but also celebrates the rich heritage associated with Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands' commitment to showcasing notable figures from various professions through their collectible cigarette cards.
