EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph titled "Owl Parrot, from the Birds of the Tropics series (N5) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands, 1889" takes us back to the enchanting world of the 19th century. Created by Allen & Ginter, this exquisite print showcases a magnificent flightless bird known as the Owl Parrot or Kakapo. Perched on a branch amidst lush tropical foliage, this colorful creature captures our attention with its vibrant plumage and striking profile. The artist's skillful use of lithography brings out every intricate detail, making it feel as if we could reach out and touch this majestic avian species. The owl parrot's large round eyes seem to gaze down at us with an air of wisdom and curiosity. Its distinctive beak is perfectly adapted for feeding on palm leaves that surround it in abundance. This image transports us to Aotearoa (New Zealand), where these unique birds are native. As we admire this beautiful representation of nature's wonders, let us appreciate not only the artistry behind it but also its historical significance. This trade card served as both entertainment and education during a time when cigarette cards were popular collectibles. Displayed in museums like The Metropolit Museum today, prints like these allow us to connect with our past while celebrating the diverse wildlife that inhabits our planet. Let this lithotint remind us of New Zealand's rich biodiversity and inspire us to protect these precious creatures for future generations
