Description: This fantastic card was issued by the McLaughlin Coffee Company of the United States of America as an insert premium in their brands of McLaughlin’s XXXX Coffee. Although no guide gives a specific year of issue it is generally assumed that these were issued in the late 1890’s This series is designated as K70 in Burdicks American Card Catalogue, and is entitles “Breeds of Dogs”. Unfortunately Burdick does not provide any information with regards to how many are in a series, however I have personally come across 22 different Dogs in this series so far. The front of the card features a colorful image of the Breed as well as advertising for the Coffee, while the back is blank as issued. The card is lightly scored (at the factory) so that the bottom section can be bent and used as a stand. This card features a POINTER (ILMA). Measurements for the card is hard to determine as it is die-cut and of uneven shape. However It measures 2 ½ inches approximately across its bottom edge, and 2 ¾ inches top to bottom. The card does have a small tear at the tail, as well as some discoloration to the back and creases. The colors are strong I think it displays very well. I have scanned the card fairly large for you to be able to judge condition for yourself . This would make an impressive display piece or gift for anyone interested in Dog Collectables or Dog Breeding. These are fairly scarce cards. Especially with their bottom stand flap still attached. Most times you find them removed or they have torn off over the years of being bent by children using them as stand up paper toys. This would make an impressive display piece or GIFT for anyone interested in this breed. Were else can you get such a wonderful CANINE IMAGE of this age and quality this inexpensive, as it is over 100 years old it is an official American Antique. I will be trying to list several EARLY TRADE & TYPE CARDS over the next few days (spread across different categories), including one or two that are unrecorded in any guide, that were put given away with Tobacco, Cigarettes , Caramel, Candy, Gum, Chocolate, Bread Coffee Tea Cereal and other products, covering such diverse subjects as Native American Indians , Baseball , Football, Boy Scouts, Ice Hockey, Golf, Presidents of the United States, NCAA and IVY League Colleges and Universities, Dog Breeds, Circus themes and many more.
