Description: Victorian Trade Card - LION COFFEE - Woolson Spice Co., Toledo, Ohio

Very pretty card depicting "SLEEPING BEAUTY". Both the princess and the prince are portrayed as children, the prince having long blonde hair, green stockings and fancy low-heeled shoes,with a sword hanging from his belt.

The back carries a very abridged version of the fairy tale and a promotion for all the free stuff one can get through the Lion Coffee Premium List.
Size: approx. 4" x 6.125"
Date: 1894 Lithographer: Gast Lith. Co., New York & Chicago
Condition: Very good, I'd say. The card is only lightly soiled, with slightly worn edges and bumped corners. The back has some light toning at the top and there's a tiny tear at the upper left corner. (Please see scans.)
