Boss' Patent Gold Watch Case - Authentic Original Antique Victorian Business Advertising Trade Card.
NOTE: This is a classic Watch Case chromolithographed trade card with a local dealer's imprint.
Over 60 distinct cards of similar size and style, plus many variations, have been cataloged and grouped into sets to date.
Collecting them all is itself a "lifetime" challenge, not to mention the fun of finding examples from your home town!
For more on these cards, you might want to order a back issue ATCQ journal: Winter 2000 (in my store).
Most of these cards use humor and mention Jewelry Store name & Watch Repairing, Gold & Silver Watches, Silverware, etc.
