EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare piece of history from the Liszt Collection - the William Purcell Rochester Union Advertiser American Editors series. Created in 1887 as a commercial color lithograph, this sheet measures 2 7/8 x 3 1/4 inches (73-83 cm) and belongs to a set of 50 trade cards issued to promote the Allen & Ginter brand of cigarettes. Intriguingly, this particular card is a physically larger version (N35) compared to its corresponding small card design. The exquisite attention to detail and vibrant colors make it an exceptional addition to any collection. The Artokoloro imprint further enhances its value and authenticity. The artwork depicts William Purcell, an esteemed editor associated with the Rochester Union Advertiser during that era. His dignified pose exudes authority and professionalism, reflecting his significant role in shaping public opinion through journalism. As part of the American Editors series, these trade cards were highly sought after by collectors who appreciated both their aesthetic appeal and historical significance. They served as promotional tools for Allen & Ginter cigarettes while also honoring influential figures in American media. Owning this remarkable print allows one to delve into the past and appreciate not only the artistry involved but also gain insights into advertising strategies employed over a century ago. It serves as a tangible reminder of how far we have come in terms of marketing techniques while preserving an important slice of cultural heritage within our grasp.
