Jeff Diver: +lulu thiry Oui! Vous avez raison. Once one company gave out these trade cards to promote their merchandise, the others quickly did so, too. In the late 1800s, sales of drugs, in particular, depended on the success of advertising campaigns based on trade cards like this one.
Hats for summer flower gathering are featured on this Victorian trade card newly added to https://goo.gl/VxJpsO The Arnold Galleries. Can you guess what product was advertised? Visit the Galleries and scroll down for the surprising answer!

The look of June. This card has an unresolved mystery. We have yet to discover who painted the original watercolor, "Wild Rose." https://goo.gl/VK8xUv The assumption is the title was inspired by the foliage, not the young lady, who looks very well behaved...at least for the time being.

In the 1890's the ladies' hats had some practical virtues. The men's stylish road racing gear may have made a fashion statement, but did little to protect them from the hazards of their sport. From page 83 (http://goo.gl/RHO5ay) of arnoldtradecards.com

Dapper, I'd say! https://goo.gl/mVfsx6 Lion Coffee's artists were ahead of their time again, using color to frame a duotone or black & white subject. While image manipulation programs do this easily today, for the lithographic printers of the 1800s this was innovative.

Rose Emma LaRose: Wonder if it was considered daring to wear dress with such a decolletage back then? These days, well...
(http://goo.gl/HT8sji) See what happens when you take time out to change your hat!

The cherry on top of this outfit is displayed on a trade card handed out by a Weaver Organ and Piano Company dealer. See the rest of the outfit in the Arnold Galleries https://goo.gl/PhRxt1 as well as some info on the Organ Company itself and an opportunity for you if you live in York PA.

Easter bonnets were especially important in the Victorian era. This one perfectly matches both the outfit and the hairdo!

The hat looks great, but the technique may cause injury... A "learning moment," I guess!

With her bonnet secured against the wind this young lady is off to gather the first wildflowers of the season. This card appears under the "Notables" tab in the Arnold Galleries https://goo.gl/jxwzLT along with other beautiful Woolson Spice Co. cards for Lion Coffee.

Jeff Diver: +Leonard Angus smith I agree and hope that at least with these panels, the artist would be identified. Woolson Spice had so many advertising campaigns going its likely I haven't even heard of them all! I'll look into those panels, now that you mention it. Thanks for your comment!
A Grand Hat for a Grand Occasion! As featured in the Arnold Galleries https://goo.gl/VxJpsO this chapeau was certainly well suited for the Grand opening of Mme. Demorest's Fashion Emporium. Click the image to enlarge. The image is free to print & share.

Doing triple duty in the Hats, Men's and Ladies Fashion section of the new Arnold Galleries https://goo.gl/M407BG the subject of this trade card actually had something to do with the merchant who distributed it. A rarity!

Jeff Diver: +جوجو جوجو Cute picture! However, it is not safe to post family photos in comments on Google+ posts. This is public space and is easily viewed by a worldwide audience whose motives may not always be as innocent as ours.
Eye-catching, for sure, this hat makes a prominent appearance on a trade card displayed on page 191 https://goo.gl/ROIdk2 of the Arnold Collection.

Jeff Diver: +Ali Thanks Great photo, but should be shared on one of the Google photography sites, perhaps "World of Photography" https://goo.gl/LClUqMmight be a good possibility. Please post to this comments field only materials relating to Victorian hats or trade cards. Thanks!
A hat for many occasions I may have posted this elsewhere, but obviously it belongs in the Hat Collection!

Icyann Lewis: Love this pix!!!
Ready for the social! Exclusive to this Collection is this fine example of 1800s haberdashery. The back of the card gives a street address or two, but no city. Do you know where this dealer was located? Please comment below if you do. Thanks!

Kathleen Leonard (Kathy): Very interesting.....Jeff, there are both Pine and Market Sts in Philadelphia as well as Fairmont Avenue.....I will definitely check this....Thank you....
Dapper, I'd say! https://goo.gl/mVfsx6 Lion Coffee's artists were ahead of their time again, using color to frame a duotone or black & white subject. While image manipulation programs do this easily today, for the lithographic printers of the 1800s this was innovative.

Don't tell anyone... The fancy hat is the reason I acquired this card for the Appendix of the Arnold Collection https://goo.gl/7G8U9w I also liked the dog (though it looked a little stiff).

Designed to sell shoes, this trade card probably did more for hat sales. http://goo.gl/O1WAzE page 150 of the Earl J. Arnold Collection 1885 has more shoe advertising, but no better hats.

Hats for kids. This youngster would look good in anything! From page 133 of the Earl J. Arnold Advertising Card Collection 1885, an era when most fashion was made in the home. http://goo.gl/Xtxc4e

The privacy hat. I hadn't quite thought of hats this way before. Now I'll have to see if I can find some examples in the Arnold Collection.

Rose Emma LaRose: Nicely coordinated!
A feather in your cap! Unfortunately, the hat did nothing for headaches, or then again, maybe it did as much for them as the "Globe Pills" it advertised....From page 103 (http://goo.gl/chBTdy) of the Earl J. Arnold Advertising Card Collection -1885.

From http://goo.gl/C5O3Dl page 17 of the Earl J. Arnold Advertising Card Collection 1885, comes a sample of the hats displayed...in ads for corsets. Prominent women are featured. Make their acquaintance!
