Step back in time with this advertisement for Schollian No. 1 cigars, showcased on a vintage cutout card in the form of a leather travelling trunk. Dating back to the late 1890s, this advertisement transports us to the era of grand Victorian travel. The intricately detailed trunk, crafted from rich, textured brown leather, boasts a prominent label displaying the Schollian No. 1 logo. The label, adorned with gold accents and elegant typography, promises a premium smoking experience. The trunk's lid serves as an ideal canvas for the advertisement, inviting passersby to take a closer look. The trunk's sturdy straps add to its authenticity, suggesting the cigars within are as robust and reliable as the luggage that carries them. The image of a man in a top hat and overcoat, holding a cigar in one hand and the trunk in the other, further emphasizes the connection between travel and the enjoyment of a fine Schollian No. 1 cigar. This advertisement card offers a glimpse into the past, when luxury travel and premium tobacco products went hand in hand. The Schollian No. 1 cigars, with their promise of exceptional quality, were the perfect companion for the well-travelled gentleman of the late 1800s. This piece of advertising history is a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts of Victorian-era ephemera.
