EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a significant piece of American history - the James Gordon Bennett New York Herald American Editors series. Created in 1887, this commercial color lithograph is part of a set of 50 trade cards that were issued to promote the Allen & Ginter brand of cigarettes. The featured image depicts James Gordon Bennett, an influential figure in journalism and founder of the renowned New York Herald newspaper. As one gazes at this print, they are transported back to a time when newspapers held immense power and influence over public opinion. Measuring approximately 2 7/8 x 3 1/4 inches (73-83 cm), this particular card stands out due to its larger size compared to other cards in the series. The design incorporates intricate details and pictorial matter that add depth and character to the overall composition.

In essence, this print serves as both a visual delight for art enthusiasts and an intriguing historical artifact that sheds light on advertising practices from over a century ago.
