It still has a beautiful silver background, and looking great on the front. Victorian cards were not expected to last this long, and only printed to adv. a business or store in the 1880's. However many were so pretty and well protected over the last 130 years, they are desired and collected. Some of us have been collecting since the early 1970's. ( sick, huh?) They are little pieces of adv. history and fun! This one shows age on the back, but the last scan will show that. The 4 scans are large enough to see it pretty well, but if you have a question, email me! Great original colors that are a bit brighter than shown in the scans. Please look closely for any aging, darkening or creases, which are sometimes common on cards of this age."GILLET'S SWISS MUSLIN SOAP * P. W. & E. W. GILLET * CHICAGO"  Size approx. 3 1/8" x 4 1/2".
