In addition to the tobacco albums, the Coffee companie of Arbuckle's and Woolson Spice issued albums during the late 19th century as premiums to the smaller cards that were issued with and in their products. The album redemptions fostered a loyalty to the brand. Arbuckle's coffee issued three different albums as companions to their series of rectangular cards that were issued in coffee cans.
The K16 Arbuckle's Illustrated Atlas of the United States of America is the second of three Arbuckle albums issued as a premium to the card sets they picture. The K16 album is titled "The Illustrated Atlas of the United States of America" and pictures the United States card in the foreground against a beautifully illustrated cover with a light green color as the primary color. The back cover pictures the state of Alaska in the foreground and another beautifully illustrated harbor scene in the background. The artwork in the album was featured on the K6 series of cards inserted into the cans of Arbuckle's coffee.
This copy of the K16 Arbuckle's Illustrated Atlas of the United States of America is in VGEX condition with just a couple spots of surface loss on the back cover. The front lower lef tcover has a couple of creases but overall the album is in very nice shape and would be a great addition to any collection.
