Auction #3 - October 2019
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 10/27/2019
One of the myriad of trade cards that Hoods Sasparilla from the C. Ayer & Co of Lowell, Mass issued over the years. Their detailed die cut pieces are found in sets and singles today and generally have some type of nursery rhyme theme or in sets of animals.
This set includes (8) pieces and the original envelope. The pieces are named on the back and include: Cow, Cat, Jack, Maiden, Man, Malt, Priest and the House. Some of the pieces have missing flaps including the House, Cow, Jack and the Priest. Interesting grouping with the rare envelope included. This set is believed to be missing Rat and Dog pieces.
