The Monarch Tobacco Works of Louisville, Kentucky issued a small set of cards in the late 1880's to early 1890's using the original artwork from the Allen & Ginter American Indian Chiefs series. The set from Monarch numbers only (4) cards and was issued with their Kickapoo Plug Tobacco product. More often than not, these cards have some type of advertising stamp on the bottom 1/2 inch of the back of the card. Ample space was left for tobacconists to add their store name or other advertising here and there is generally a stamp of such here.
This lot is for a single N570 Monarch Tobacco Kickapoo Indians of the subject "Geronimo" that is in poor condition with surface issues on both the front and the back.
